Hi Eric, /dev/cciss/c0d0 does exist during install.
I've tried a standard cd install. Then, the root partition takes all space on the device. So it isn't a driver issue. It must be something in the recipe. So, searching further for a solution. If *anyone* has a tip concerning this matter would be appreciated *so* much ! cheers, Andy 2009/6/30 Andy Kannberg <andy.kannb...@gmail.com> > Hi Eric, > > No, haven't checked the error logs.
