The first thing I did was to skrink the C volume and I also created two new ones (using windows 7)
I was thinking of booting from the 11.2 DVD and letting Yast do the shrinking and partitioning and taking the Yast defaults all the way. Has anyone simply tried doing that on a computer which comes with windows 7 pre installed? L
That's the whole point. Yast is unable to do that. As said the laptop came with a dynamic disk. <URL:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_Disk_Manager> AFAIK, the only way to install OpenSuse is by converting the dynamic drive into a basic one, but that involve reformatting the drive and that's something I'm not very keen of to do. I don't have a Windows 7 system dvd, only a recovery dvd set. I wouldn't be suprised if the recovery dvd's wouldn't do their job if the partitions has been changed.
