Sorry for long time without any comment, this is really was problem with disk,
Fedora 13 installer says that disk contains RAID BIOS metadata, but no RAID
present, and not show disk too on partition creating step. Erasing by 'dd
if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda' don't help, so I use ERASE command from M
Found on Net:
"this did the trick:
1. boot into the live CD (first option on the installer menu)
2. open a terminal (Applications > Accessories > Terminal)
3. enter this command: sudo apt-get -y remove dmraid
4. run Install Ubuntu 9.10 from the desktop icon.
"
This helps, disk recogniz
Hi Dave, I select "nodmraid" option at boot screen, and now installer don't see
any disk or partition on step 4. No buttons except Forward, Back and Quit
enabled for this step.
Gparted works with disk fine.
