[Cooker] Partition problem during text installation.

2000-01-25 Thread Hans Van Leemputten

I must congratulate Mandrake for a job well done, Mandrake Air was a 
pleasure to install. It was only to bad that I could not use the graphical 
installation (it seams like it does not support the SIS6326 during 
installation), I had to use the text installation (I started it by typing 
"linux text" at the boot prompt). And it is during this installation there 
is still a bug (I think it is a bug), after selecting the language and 
selecting typical installation I got the message "No Partition" and this was 
it the installation stops (you can't do anything any more). Then I made the 
partitions by hand with a old boot disk and after I did this the 
installation went without any problem (except not detecting my mouse).

For all clarity i'm using Mandrake air 7.0 and I was trying to install it on 
a empty hard disk (no partition at all).

Hope this helps (also hope you will provide support for the SIS6326 chip in 
the GUI installation).

Ok, this is my system configuration:
I have a PC Chips 590M motherboard, the SIS6326 is on the main-board, with a 
AMD-K6 II 333Mhz processor. 192 MB memory, a 3Dfx voodoo II board, WinTV 
board from Hauppauge, PCI sound blaster 128, CD-ROM, NE2000 network board, 
drive, 17" monitor and 25 GB hard disk.

Maybe this help's determining the problem.
If you need a test person for the GUI installation with SiS 6326 chip let me 
know.

Although i'm new to Linux (lets say I worked a bit on Solaris as user and 
installed Linux before) i still like to help you resolve this problem.
