[Bug 267212] New: no 0x41 PReP boot proposed on blade with SLOF
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=267212 Summary: no 0x41 PReP boot proposed on blade with SLOF Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 3 Platform: PowerPC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: yast2-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: olh@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com CC: power-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com SLOF (slimline openfirmware) is used on upcoming Cell blades, it can also be used in current JS20. yast does not propose a 0x41 PReP boot, in fact it attempts to delete the existing 0x41 PReP boot. I could not find the place where normal openfirmware and SLOF differs in the userinterface. What data does the partitioner use to make the decision for the boot partition? -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
