Hi all. I just bought SuSE 8.1 Pro. My partition table is: /dev/hda1, fat32, 5Gb, Win98 /dev/hda2, ntfs, 6 Gb, Win2k /dev/hda5, 9 Gb, planned for linux /dev/hda6, fat16 for xosl /dev/hdb1, fat32 for documents /dev/hdb2, swap for linux Xosl installed on hda6 is a very powerful and nice bootmanager. I'm using it to manage double booting of Win98 and 2k and it works fine. I started SuSE 8.1 installation and I choosed from Yast2 "custom partitioning". Well, Yast2 keeps telling me it can see only /dev/hda, no hda1, hda2, etc.. and it keeps planning to reformat the entire /dev/hda to set a unique big partition for SuSE Linux. I tried everything: I selected "First Hard Disk" instead of "Custom partitioning", I selected "Base partitioning on Yast suggestion" (or something like that...), but no way. So I tried to reboot my system using an old Linux system floppy (SYSLinux...) and I tried fdisk from that floppy. The command fdisk /dev/hda from that floppy can see all the partitions I have. So, what's wrong with Yast2?? TIA, Ferdinando
