https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=779457 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=779457#c0 Summary: 12.2 Installer can't use existing RAID5 for /home Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 12.2 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: drt781@yahoo.com QAContact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:15.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/15.0 Had a RAID5 mounted as /home under OpenSuse 12.1. OpenSuse 12.2 installer could not directly mount the existing RAID5 into /home for fresh installation. (Instead had to use temporary newly-formatted partition elsewhere for /home on first boot, and switched to the mounted RAID5 after reboot) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start with pre-existing RAID5 (and probably other RAIDs) under prior version (MD127) 2. Try to install OpenSuse 12.2, KDE 3. Try to create custom partition setup (reject system suggestion of brand-new /home) 4. Try to re-assemble or detect RAID5 (MD127) /home from prior OpenSuse installation in installer/partition manager as /home in new 12.2 installation 5. Installer does not succeed, lacks support for doing this. Actual Results: Error message on next screen. Expected Results: Assemble or detect RAID array and/or configure OpenSuse 12.2 to mount it as /home Was able to mount RAID5 as /home after first reboot. Would have been nice to be able to do it through installer. -- 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.
