Description Glen Davis 2006-02-27 18:16:05 UTC 
I have an HP Proliant ML110 with one IDE drive and four SATA drives.  During the install I go into the partioning options to do custom paritioning.  It shows all my drives as IDE, but then shows /dev/sda next to them. 

For consistency the description should say SCSI since they are being partitioned with /dev/sda.

Glen, please attach the logfiles.

Reassigning in case the problem is already know and/or easily tracked
Comment 2 Ladislav Slezák 2006-02-28 10:28:16 UTC 
Even if the device node is /dev/sd* it's not a SCSI device. I think that they should be displayed as SATA devices to be clear that they are not standard IDE devices neither SCSI devices. I think presenting them as SCSI is wrong.

Thomas, is this feasible  or an issue for the kernel people?
Comment 4 Thomas Fehr 2006-04-19 09:40:00 UTC 
hwinfo shows them as IDE drives so yast2-storage does the same.
Of coruse we could add a new buy type "SATA" in addition to "IDE" and "SCSI"
but I get the data bout bus type from hwinfo so the would need to be changed
in hwinfo. Reassigning to Steffen.
Comment 5 Steffen Winterfeldt 2006-04-19 09:47:17 UTC 
Ok, with me, but not before 10.2.
Comment 6 Thomas Fehr 2006-04-19 09:52:53 UTC 
Fine with me...
Comment 7 Thomas Fehr 2006-04-19 09:53:29 UTC 
If you added it, please reassign this back to me so I can make the changes 
in ycp code.

WORKSFORME in 11.0.

I didn't see any place where a bustyp is displayed.
