https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=214284 Summary: incorrect partitioning info Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 5 Platform: 32bit OS/Version: SuSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: yez@familieschepers.nl QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Hello, Trying to install opensuse, the installation offers to install on /dev/hda5, but I want to install on /dev/hda6. So I choose "Create Custom Partition Setup". I choose 1.IDE (first HD) and after that I check the checkbox for /dev/hda6. This screen also shows me /dev/hda10 being "Linux swap", which is correct. When I now click Next, The "Installation Settings"-screen tells me it wants to delete /dev/hda6 and to "create root partition /dev/hda10 (4.8 GB) with reiserfs". My /dev/hda10 partition is 290Mb. This doesn't look right to me. Then, I choose to change again, but now I select "Custom Partitioning (for experts". Now, /dev/hda9 has become my swap partition and /dev/hda10 has become a 4.8Gb partition. My real partitioning is the following : [root@brink14 ~]# fdisk -l /dev/hda Disk /dev/hda: 40.0 GB, 40020664320 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4865 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 638 5124703+ 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/hda2 639 4865 33953377+ 5 Extended /dev/hda5 * 639 1276 5124703+ 83 Linux /dev/hda6 1277 1914 5124703+ 83 Linux /dev/hda7 1915 2552 5124703+ 83 Linux /dev/hda8 2553 3827 10241406 83 Linux /dev/hda9 3828 4828 8040501 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/hda10 4829 4865 297171 82 Linux swap / Solaris It looks like the error is that a 4.8Gb Linux partition is shifted to the end of the list. I could attach some screenshots, but I can't find how to attach files.
