I have encountered the same problem installing on a SCSI hard drive. This defect considered SHOULD-FIX for Fairfax gold-release. This problem has also been seen in the IA64 beta 2. This has been the case for a while. Unfortunately, turning off swap isn't generally a safe thing to do and so we back out and can't reread the partition table as the swap is still in use. fixed in CVS, there is now a dialog saying that you can't edit partitioning after swap is on. |
