Description Karl Eichwalder 2006-02-02 07:42:43 UTC
YaST wants to create /dev/hda6 twice:

delete /dev/hda5
"      /dev/hda6
create /dev/hda6 (4,5) for /home
create /dev/hda6 (3,0)
use /dev/hda1 as swap

I'll attache y2log etc.

Please attach the output of `fdisk -l' and your /etc/fstab of this system.
Comment 3 Karl Eichwalder 2006-02-02 13:42:06 UTC
Isn't this in the attachment?  Now, it's too late because the new system is already installed.
Comment 4 Michael Gross 2006-02-02 16:06:52 UTC
OK let's reassign it to Thomas.
Thomas: With problems which are related to the partitioner, what additional information do you need? Is the information in the logs really sufficient?
Comment 5 Thomas Fehr 2006-02-02 16:21:17 UTC
In general the y2log files are sufficient for storage related problems
(these contain partitions layout and fstab content as well).

There are of course rare cases where one needs additional data, but I am
perfectly fine with gettings these from reporter directly if needed. 
It simply would not make sense to generally demand files that are only 
needed very seldom cases (eg if device-mapper, sw raid, LVM is involved).

Of course y2log files are always needed it is virtually impossible for me
to debug nontrivial things without complete y2log files.

This one is a duplicate that will be fixed in beta#4.
