Hi Steen Ok - bit of confusion here. I though your install was going through, but with an additional partition being created beyond dsadx1. The devices must be formated and partitioned, as YaST isn't capable (in SLES8) of doing it automatically. 1) I believe that you can do a z/VM format of the DASD devices as ECKD/Linux Disk Layout. In which case you can't have more than one partition, but apparently you can then use it from YaST without partitioning. 2) Alternatively, you should look into the autoyast pre-install script. That's the place you can do things like load the dasd module manually and do the required format and partitioning. The dasd tools should be on the initrd! See the README file on top level of first install media for SLES8. Best, Yan that it
couldn't format /dev/dasda2. Then I abort the installation. Should I always make a dasdfmt and fdasd -a on my dasd after loading the dasd module ???? If that the answer I still haven't unattended installation.

Hi Steen
Have tried the <initialize> didn't change anything. For the size
statement
didn't you mean max and not all?
I did. Sorry about that! Does it change anything?
The output from fdisk -l
I meant after autoyast has completed partitioning. I just wanted to see what the (wrong) result is.
