Hello everyone,
I'm having an issue installing AsteriskNOW 2.0.2 on a Dell server. When I
go to install it, with BIOS legacy mode for partition tables, I get as far
as setting up the partition tables. However, the installer then informs me
that GPT partition table schemes are required and that I have to resolve
the issue.
I changed from BIOS/MBR/Legacy mode to GPT/UEFI boot mode but then the
installer fails to install. Upon investigation it seems that this is a
fault of the CentOS installer.
What makes you think Centos is at fault?
There must be a work around to this issue
since it seems that the partition tables require GPT mode but the installer
for the x86_64 disc don't support UEFI mode.o
How big are your partitions? The only reason Centos requires GPT is if you
have a partition larger than 2TB.
Does anyone know of a work around or solution to this problem?
If your partitions are not over 2 TB then you do not need GPT. The 2TB limit
is not a Centos limitation. It is a limit of the msdos boot block. This also
affects Windoze.
