Description of problem:
Trying to install RH on a new laptop, HP Pavilion ZE 5000 series. 
First tried RH7.3 and consistently got errors related to the 
partition table, such as invalid partition table, wrong signature. Initially we 
were trying to set up partitions in Windows XP using Partition Magic but we got 
the same problems when we tried to let linux set up partitions automatically, 
and even when we allowed it to overwrite XP. For kicks we tried to install an 
old version 7.0 lying around and it installed with no problems. From there we 
tried to upgrade to 7.3 and RH says there is no linux to upgrade!! Now we are 
working with 7.2 and have found the exact same problems with the partition 
table whether we install over RH7.0 or try to upgrade. We are attaching a 
representative error file. We obtained this bug by trying to install, have the 
installer automatically partition, and remove all partitions on the system. 
Initially we get an invalid partition table error, wrong signature f82, which 
if ignored gives messages that the partition table is inconsistent, and finally 
the installation crashes with the output attached.

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


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install as described above, allowing the installer to automatically 
partition and remove all partitions on the system.
2.
3.
	

Actual Results:  Installer crashed and gave error attached below.

Expected Results:  Successful install.

Additional info:

There seem to be a few similar errors in the database but we are not sure they 
are the same. We are not sure we have a 3ware device but tried making an update 
from RHBA-2001:131 since the problem seemed similar. However, when we tried to 
boot using linux updates, the installer started running but when it asked for 
the diskette with the .img file, the window froze and we could not do anything 
else.
