From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 95) Description of problem: I have a 13.6GB drive. However, the Red Hat 7.1 installer will not use the whole drive, it will leave 4.7xGB free, unpartitioned when partitioning into 1 partition. However, when making several partitions, 100% of the drive can be used. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run bootnet.img / drivers.img from floppy 2. load up NIC card driver 3. Go through install until autopartitioning, which will fail. 4. Select disk druid from menu option 5. Create swap and / partitions only 6. look at disk usage, huge ammounts of space are left over. Actual Results: I couldn't use all 13.6GB of my drive Expected Results: All 13.6GB should have been used on the drive. Additional info:
Can you go to VC2 and type 'mknod hda' and then 'fdisk -l hda'. That will tell you what the partition table currently looks like. Can you post the output of that here? There could be some older partitions left over from the past. We have not seen this kind of behavior with Disk Druid before.
