From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.0.0-10; Linux) Description of problem: /dev/hda1 is WinXP Pro NTFS primary partition, /dev/hda5 is a FAT32 logical drive in an extended partition, /dev/hda6 is a NTFS logical drive in that extended partition, /dev/hda3 is ext3 primary partition and /dev/hda4 is swap primary partition. Boot Loader Configuration guesses that /dev/hda5 is a bootable DOS partition (nope, just data) and doesn't list the WinXP partition. Deleting the bogus /dev/hda5 and manually adding /dev/hda1 appears to work around the problem. I also have a /dev/hdb drive that's one big NTFS partition but I doubt that's relevant. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. Do installation until Boot Loader Installation step 2. Boot Loader Configuration guesses wrong WinXP boot partition 3. Expected Results: Should have seen /dev/hda1 as the bootable Windows partition Additional info:
During the installation on a machine with a Windows Xp, RH7.3 and the new RH Limbo partition - the config tool doesn't guess anything at all... Only the new beta linux entry is listed an all others have to be added manually
We don't detect existing Linux partitions somewhat intentionally. Changed the detection algorithm for Windows so that it should add the first NTFS or FAT partition found instead of just the first FAT partition.
Works just fine in Limbo 7.3.93!
