There's an expert option on the partitioning screen that will allow you to blow away the existing partition table and recreate it, then you can install.
Doesn't help when doing an upgrade rather then a fresh install.
So take a console (ALT-CTRL-F2) as early as possible and use fdisk. It must be before YaST is reading your partition table.
You're missing the point. The disk is already partitioned, there should be no reason to use fdisk. The problem is that the partition names show as some strange name:
/dev/mapper/lsi_jhicccaiaa_part1 DM Raid (ext3 /dev/mapper/lsi_jhicccaiaa_part3 DM Raid (xfs)
and when I select what should be the proper partition for the upgrade (part3 with xfs) it tells me:
"No installed system that can be upgraded with this product was found on the selected partition"
Since the partition that I want to upgrade is on an xfs partition I cannot _upgrade_ my system.
Also the bug referenced shows this as resolved from Beta 2. If so why is it still around in the retail version?
I can also drop down to "F2" console and mount the proper partitions (/dev/ccissc/c0d0p3 is /, and /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 is /boot) without error.
What is if you mount by hand /dev/cciss/c0d0p3 -> /mnt /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 -> /mnt/boot and return to YaST? No chance to continue after YaST's failing mount attempts?
