traceback dump of anaconda state generated by itself after crash
If you have any partitions set as type raid they need to be part of a valid raid array. And you think this is ok behaviour? I mean, what if I have 5 or 10 disks, and I want to pre-partition as raid autodetect partitions to be used later? In my case I had a 10GB partition on each drive that I was going to use later on as a mirror or stripe, but first I was going to use one of them to install windows and do some testing, so I defined them as type "fd". Unless we are know in competition with Microsoft for bad programming, this certainly bad behaviour. At the least, if you do not want the user to define raid partitions that are not used, then give out a message, but crashing the whole install program! duh! |
