Hi all - I just tried to install 10.3beta2 (the KDE CD iso) on my 64bit machine. The first steps worked until the installation set-up. But when I check the suggested partitioning it recognises my IDE disk as an /dev/sda and the menu in the partitioner also says it is a scsi disk. Checking on the suggested GRUB entries, the 10.2 root is also set to /dev/sda. At that point I stopped, because I did not want to shoot down my working 10.2 installation.
I remember dimly that there was something about devices not correctly identified at some point in bugzilla, but I could not find it back...
The question is: Is this a real bug or a feature? I always thought that IDE disks should be on hda devices.
It is a feature. hda is ... mostly history. We now use libata for IDE drives which is a SCSI based library. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
