From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10 Description of problem: The Anaconda installer hangs when trying to install the filesystem. This happens when I have given DiskDruid a mountpoint (for an existing reiserfs-partition) like /home which will be generated one way or the other. A mountpoint like /home/reiserfspart or /media/reiserfspart works without problems. So I can't keep my existing /home partition of my old SuSE installation without editing /etc/fstab later. Furthermore there is no warning or error message, so that you don't know what went wrong, when the installer hangs, so it causes some headache. Workaround is obiviously, to give a different mountpoint /home/oldhome (or something else) and then edit the /etc/fstab accordingly. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a reiserfs Partition and put some files in there. 2. Give DiskDruid the mountpoint /home for this partition without formatting. 3. Proceed with the installation until the software tries create filesystem. Actual Results: The system hangs creating the filesystem. Expected Results: The system should integrate the existing /home partition or give a warning when trying to do so. Additional info:
