[Bug 367686] New: Cannot install on SATA disk
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=367686 Summary: Cannot install on SATA disk Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Alpha 2plus Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: fehr@novell.com ReportedBy: trenn@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com CC: jblunck@novell.com Found By: Development The installation was started with autoyast and ssh on. It seems the system detects the one Disk as a Raid: ls /dev/mapper/ control ddf1_496e74656c202020100004118086350133102d2fbe875e63_part1 ddf1_496e74656c202020100004118086350133102d2fbe875e63 ddf1_496e74656c202020100004118086350133102d2fbe875e63_part2 inst-sys:~ # cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name 7 0 16788 loop0 7 1 41460 loop1 7 2 28 loop2 8 0 488386584 sda 8 1 104391 sda1 8 2 1959930 sda2 8 3 1 sda3 8 5 4891761 sda5 8 6 4891761 sda6 8 7 4891761 sda7 8 8 4891761 sda8 8 9 466752478 sda9 253 0 487304192 dm-0 253 1 104391 dm-1 253 2 1959930 dm-2 Hmm, sda partitioning is correct, we set up our machines in that way. But I wonder why there exist dm partitions 0-2. I could disable SATA Raid support in BIOS and it would work... I agree it is a bit stupid to have it switched on with only one disk, but shouldn't we be able to handle this gracefully? The machine hast one 500 GB hard drive. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

As long as this dmraid device is present you cannot use /dev/sda Ehh, yes. This probably is a autoyast issue, forgot about this. I expect autoyast is not yet capable of using dmraid devices out of the box?
I tried some time ago and autoyast worked fine when the /dev/mapper/xy device, in this case: /dev/mapper/ddf1_496e74656c202020100004118086350133102d2fbe875e63 is passed to be the disk it has to install on. For this you need to boot/install twice, one time to get the string, then add it to autoyast xml file, then try again. But I expect we also want to track down the dmraid segfault? I'll open a new bug for the autoyast dmraid issue: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=367734 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
