excellent thanks for the page. One question, shouldn't we advertise parted in place of fdisk which doesn't know how to handle GPT disk ?
fdisk 2.24 knows GPT. parted does not know sectors apparently :)
I have a 4T seagate drive formatted GPT by yast and family which works fine in openSUSE 13.1 as long as I do not try to reboot the box with the drive set to auto-mount. It is lvm one partition ext4 and when trying to boot 13.1 with the drive auto-mount, boot fails with lvm problem and reports it is in "maintenance mode" but never provides a prompt to log in. Almost pulled my remaining hairs out before realizing that drive was the problem rather than my lvm ssd system drive. The new speedy boot makes err msgs fly by quite quickly. I can boot with a "live" cd/dvd and the lvm is "Active" and I can mount it w/o any action other than creating a mount point and: mount -t ext4 /dev/mapper/<lvm-name> mount-point I realize that this undoubtedly deserves a bug report. What should be reported against what and what logs provide relative info? kernel-desktop-3.11.10-7.1.x86_64 -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
