I used the First disc in rescue mode. I tried to rebuild the bootloader but it failed and exited abnormally. I mounted the drives with the rescue disc and my installation and filesystems appeared to be intact. I installed Windows 2000 to make sure there wasn't a problem with the BIOS and controller configurations. Windows 2000 does boot just fine on the new controller.

[Cooker] [Bug 4600] [drakxtools] Expert Auto-allocate Function problem
http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4600
[EMAIL PROTECTED] changed:
What|Removed |Added
Status|NEW |RESOLVED
Resolution||FIXED
--- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-21-08 04:45 ---
fixed in CVS:
allocatePartitions() resulted in a small unallocated area at the end of the
drive when:
- suggest_part() reserves some room for the other partitions which are going to
be added next. For maxsize limited partition, it reserves maxsize (if maxsize
is reached)
- suggest_part() which adds the last partition limited by maxsize can be
called on a partition a little bigger than maxsize due to cylinder boundary
adjustments on previous partition creations. In that case, it doesn't use the
full area.
It occured for example with the current $fsedit::suggestions{server}.
The fix chosen is to ensure the last suggest_part() is called with a size
defined as maxsize <= size < maxsize + cylinder_size.
