https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=287080 Summary: "cannot read the partition table on disk dev/rd/c0d0" during initial phase of upgrade from 10.0 to 10.2 Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i386 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: chris.ray@bazaarsystems.co.uk QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Customer Created an attachment (id=148083) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=148083) YaST y2log in debug mode I have an old Bull 5800/120Le server. It has 2 Pent3 CPU and a Mylex DAC960PTL1 RAID card. It is running 10.0 on two 18.2G disk configured for RAID1 under the Mylex card: so the system sees one 18.2G disk on /dev/rd/c0d0. The CD drive mounts as /dev/hda. I am upgrading to 10.2 using CDs. Just after the "I agree to the license" stuff, I get a brief pop-up about "probing hard disks" and the a pop-up saying " The partitioning on disk /dev/rd/c0d0" is not readable by the partitioning tool parted...". It then asks what type of installation I want, but with "upgrade" greyed out. At this stage I abort the install (if I carry on it offers to reformat the disk!) I have a y2log in debug mode that seems to show YaST getting the correct data from the "parted" partitioner, but then getting confused about how many partitions it is seing. Here are the line from y2log (in debug mode) showing the data returned from parted to YaST: 2007-06-21 14:44:54 <1> 192.168.2.60(3408) [libstorage] Disk.cc(checkSystemError):506 out: BIOS cylinder,head,sector geometry: 2213,255,63.
