Description Doug Lewis 2000-10-06 05:23:54 UTC
Upon installing RH7 anaconda failed twice at the package installation screen after formating the partitions.  Below is the information that was 
saved to a floppy by RH7.

I have 6 win32 partitions on two drives and am installing RH7 on a seperate drive with the following partitions:

windows drives/partitions
hda 1-4
sda 5-6

RH7 partitions
/ boot: hdb1,40M,cyl1-6
/:hdb2,200M,cyl7-32
/<swap>:hdb3,256M,cyl33-65
/tmp:hdb5,750M,cyl66-161
/usr:hdb6,4000M,cyl162-671
/home:hdb7,2000M,cyl672-926
/var:hdb8,2000M,cyl927-1181
/opt:hdb9,1000M,cyl1182-1309
/usr/local:hdb10,2133M,cyl1310-1582
