While trying to install linux software (LXDE-PCLinuxOS) on my computer, I encountered the following that requested that I send an error report. I was trying to install the software on a HDD that was already partitioned as an ext4 drive. The installer crashed before getting to the HDD partitioning portion of the installation procedure.
The output from the terminal session is provided below: [root@localhost guest]# /usr/sbin/draklive-install /media/ user Backtrace has 11 calls on stack: 11: /usr/lib/libparted.so.0(ped_assert+0x29) [0xb77278b9] 10: /usr/lib/libparted.so.0 [0xb775d435] 9: /usr/lib/libparted.so.0 [0xb775e2b7] 8: /usr/lib/libparted.so.0 [0xb775f6aa] 7: /usr/lib/libparted.so.0 [0xb772c28e] 6: /usr/lib/libparted.so.0(ped_disk_add_partition+0x271) [0xb772fbf1] 5: /usr/lib/libparted.so.0 [0xb77610e3] 4: /usr/lib/libparted.so.0 [0xb776130e] 3: /usr/lib/libparted.so.0(ped_disk_new+0x79) [0xb7730a29] 2: /usr/lib/libDrakX/auto/c/stuff/stuff.so(XS_c__stuff_get_disk_type+0x1e6) [0xb77b6b91] 1: /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.1/i386-linux-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so(Perl_pp_entersub+0x56e) [0x489181ee] A bug has been detected in GNU Parted.
