Failure formatting the drive during installation
Last modified: 2005-08-11 08:44:52 UTC
Installation up to the proposal screen. Then select Partitioning and change s.th. After return to the proposal start the installation. The formatting screen appears baut after some time an error popup says: Storage modification failed System error code was: -3005 Formatting /dev/... with none The partition with the failure is swap, that appaerently shall be formatted with type none. Don't have time to investigate further but it seems that the error only occurs if and only if the partitioning is changed from the proposal. If the initial proposal is accepted as is, no error occurs. Tested this on two different machines, x86 and x86_64: Same behaviour. And no, I don't have the time to provide y2log now. Some responsible person will have to investigate this.
How do you expect "some responsible person" to investigate based on the amount of information you've given ?
Please attach y2logs, it's as simple as pressing Shift+F8 (see http://w3.suse.de/~sh/Bugreporting-faq/index.html#id2518603)
Created attachment 45151 [details] y2log I can now reproduce the error.
Fixed in yast2-storage 2.12.15.
