Description Forgotten User ZhJd0F0L3x 2006-01-27 12:16:34 UTC 
Installing SLES10Beta2, i repartitioned the disk. Afterwards installation failed.
Investigation showed that the root partition was much smaller than what i had configured.

In the attached Yast2logs tarball, there is a file "fdisk-l.log" that shows the actual disk partitioning before i rebooted the machine.

*$%&/!
Unfortunately transferring of the yast2log tarball failed and i already rebooted the machine.
Comment 2 Martin Lasarsch 2006-01-27 14:01:30 UTC 
can you try it again?
Comment 3 Forgotten User ZhJd0F0L3x 2006-01-27 16:25:02 UTC 
i did. But since the disk now has a different partitioning scheme before the repartitioning, the bug did not get triggered.
I know this report is pretty useless now, but it might serve as a "mee too" if somebody else reports a similar bug.

At least I cannot do anything useful with it now. Closing.
