Description of problem: In attempting to install over a debian installation, I chose manual partitioning. I told it to reformat my '/' partition, and selected the proper '/home' partition, but told it not to format that. Both are ext3. The installation continued and formatted the root partition fine. However, while copying the installation image over, it reached about 80% of the way and stopped claiming that the most likely cause of the problem was lack of hard drive space (the root partition alone is 9GB - not likely). I tried this several times recieving the same error. Finally, I started the installation from the beginning, selected manual partitioning, and did not specify the '/home' partition. Installation went fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora Core 1 How reproducible: Very Steps to Reproduce: 1. select manual partitioning 2. tell it to format the '/' partition, but not the '/home' partition 3. continue Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Does booting with 'linux allowcddma' work around the problem?
