Description of problem:
During installation, when I chose "manually partition with disk druid" and then
click "next", I got the error:

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. choose "Installation type > workstation"
2. choose "manually partition with disk druid"
3. click "next", then crash
	

Actual Results:  Partition Table was destroied. The hard driver cannot boot and
be found.

Additional info:

1. Hard Driver: Maxtor 6L040J2 40G
2. install from hard driver by autoboot from DOS
3. 4 fat32 partitions, win98 and winxp dual boot. 12G unallocated for RH 7.3.

Comment 1 Michael Fulbright 2002-08-19 16:04:12 UTC
Have you tested your CDs?

 http://people.redhat.com/~msf/mediacheck.html

Comment 2 Sean Liao 2002-08-19 16:55:49 UTC
Yes, I have tested all ISOs used md5sum. They are all right.

Comment 3 Michael Fulbright 2002-08-23 15:52:24 UTC
I'm not sure I understand - have you tested the ISOs following the instructions
n the web site I have?

Comment 4 Sean Liao 2002-08-24 23:02:34 UTC
I didn't use "linux mediacheck" because I didn't know this before. I installed
from Hard Driver and the ISOs were on a fat32 partition. The only test I've done
was tested the ISOs by md5sum.exe, and then checked the number in md5sum. The
16bit number of each ISO was correct.

Now I've formatted the HD and reinstalled everything including Redhat. This time
was quite smooth and both Windows and Redhat are running well, but there was a
problem I want to mention. After I installed the Redhat, I run the
PartitiomMagic in Windows. It reported there was a problem in each Redhat
partition, and if auto-fixed it(sorry I didn't copy the report). I choiced Yes
but didn't see any different. I've seen the same problem was posted in
somewhere, but it doesn't seem a serious problem.

Since I'm a newbie on Redhat and Linux, my report maybe wasn't clear. Sorry
about that. Anyway, thank you very much for your help.

Comment 5 Michael Fulbright 2002-08-26 16:28:46 UTC
Glad to hear you have things working now!
