Description Sam Varshavchik 2000-06-18 17:35:03 UTC 
Graphical install.

Told anaconda to do a new install, and to have it automatically partition
the disk.

anaconda did not partition about a hundred cylinders.  See the following
attachment.

partition dump after installation.
Comment 2 Brock Organ 2000-06-18 18:02:59 UTC 
automatic partitioning in anaconda currently does not guarantee using all
cylinders on a disk ... :-( 

this is on the feature request list though ... :)

thanks for your report!
