[Bug 264927] New: Partition Tool wants to create another Swap partition
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=264927 Summary: Partition Tool wants to create another Swap partition Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: martin@gamesplace.info QAContact: jsrain@novell.com I have a computer with a ~ 15 GB harddisk. The current partitioning looks like that: /dev/hda1: 1 GB swap Rest: Unpartitioned Now, the suggestion by the installation tool is to use /dev/hda1 as a swap and to create another swap (200 MB). Shouldn't 1 GB as swap be sufficient? -- 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.

I'd like to attach the output of fdisk -l and the YaST logs but I sadly do not have access to the computer. YaST said that it would need a swap so I told it to mount /dev/hda1 if that is interesting for solving the issue. -- 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.

Currently handling of active swap parititions by YaST2 is flawed (see also #262417). -- 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.
