Hallo Jeremy,

this looks like a bug in SI. Possibly a bug in parsing the output from
parted. Could you post the output of manually running "parted -s --
/dev/cciss/c0d0 print"?

Thanks,
Thomas Krause

I noticed the --unit % flag and this is what I get against an HP system:

si_prepareclient --server 10.10.10.10 -unit % Using "parted" to gather
information about disk:
     /dev/cciss/c0d0

Illegal division by zero at
/usr/lib/systemimager/perl/SystemImager/Common.pm line 1040.

Is this a bug?
