[opensuse-factory] Installation problem
When I attempt to install 13.2-RC1 I encounter an error. When I get to the summary screen it displays a message stating "unable to verify free space: cannot start installation" I'm using expert partitioner, ext4 fs, and mount by volume labels. This message is displayed for both /boot and /opt (both separate partitions). ALL other partitions show warnings for verify free space. Has the partitioning method changed in 13.2? I don't recall seeing this in the documentation. This would be for a multi-boot system with OS 13.1 and Windows 7 Pro. Thanks, Tom -- Failure seldom stops you.

Essential information about the type of the disk format, the size of the partitions etc. is missing. -- fr.gr. Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

The root partition is a SSD of 124GB with "/" being 28.4 GB, /boot is 5.9 GB, /opt is 48.8 GB on a standard 1.5 TB drive. as stated previously all partitions are formatted ext4.

From your signature I conclude that you also have partitions on the same disks with openSUSE 13.1. So this information is still incomplete. Does your system have a BIOS with UEFI or not? What type of partitioning are you using on your disks, DOS or GPT? What bootloader is in use on your system? Your BIOS boots from the SSD?
