From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040914 Firefox/0.10.1 Description of problem: Here is the error message I get on my laptop after telling it to remove the existing Linux partitions and automatically partition: Error Partitioning Could not allocate requested partitions: Unsatisfied partition request New Part Request - mountpoint: None uniqueID: 6 type: physical volume (LVM) format: 1 badblocks: None device: None drive: ['hda'] primary: None size: 0 grow: 1 maxsize: None start: None end: None migrate: None origfstype: None. The error is occurring on an IBM Thinkpad T41 model number 2479-DKU. FC2 installed without a problem and has served me well. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Reboot using DVD Actual Results: See above Expected Results: Not what you see above. Additional info:
The model number of the laptop is 2379-DKU, not 2479-DKU as I originally reported.
This should be fixed post-test3.
Installed today (Oct 24) , I think this is the same problem. I chose automatic partitioning, remove all linux partitions, then hit "next". Could not allocate request partitions: requested FilesystemType needs a flag that is not available. This is on a ibook though.
