Machine: SunBlade 1000 Processor: Ultrasparc III x 2 Memory: 2GB Partitions: did not get that far Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [O] Detect network card: [O] Configure network: [O] Detect CD: [O] Load installer modules: [O] Detect hard drives: [O] Partition hard drives: [E] Install base system: [ ] Clock/timezone setup: [ ] User/password setup: [ ] Install tasks: [ ] Install boot loader: [ ] Overall install: [ ] Comments/Problems: A couple of issues: The display of partition sizes appears to be all screwed up (see the first attached screenshot). Attempt to mount /dev/sdb2 as / on /target fails with "invalid argument" (see second attached screenshot). My guess is that it happens because mount gets an argument -t ext3, while the partition is ext4, and mounts fine from the shell if I do not specify a type argument. Perhaps, mke2fs default has changed without installer being aware of it? Best regards, -- Jurij Smakov ju...@wooyd.org Key: http://www.wooyd.org/pgpkey/ KeyID: C99E03CC
