hmm was going to add a file with bootmessage to shed light on device configuration but dont see where to add second file..so let me know if you would like. Created attachment 348853 [details]
sorry tired....her is dmesg to help get idea of devices on machine
What does `parted DEVICE print free` spit out. You can execute this while in the installer. Also note that there is a new parted in fedora, the latest version is parted-1.9.0-5.20090721git980c sorry for delay.
no luck.
system disk is fully partitioned now from f10 install but ran the following
from a terminal window from the fc11 live cd (download image dated june) that i had used for the bug report:
'parted DEVICE print free' which from the man page i think is supposed to refer to default device but gave me 'error could not stat device DEVICE'
'parted /dev/sdb print free' gave me 'parted: invalid token: parted'
[root@localhost liveuser]# parted /dev/sda
GNU Parted 1.8.8
Using /dev/sda

downloaded a fresh version of the fedora-core-11-livecd few days ago and it also was dated june (all the mirrors i checkes were same) and uses parted 1.8.8 instead of the 1.9 you suggested is available. cant wait for my next system crash to have to get around to making my own livecd lol.
fyi, did an install of fc12 last week and although didnt resize any partitions i did overwrite them and formated them to ext4 in the process. the install went great. not sure if this helps since i didnt try a resize.

Thanks, we indeed have fixed a number of no medium bugs in Fedora-12. These bugs are not related to resizing or not, so your test confirms this is fixed for your system, closing. |
