------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-14 16:43 ------- I've tried the latest version of the installer, and the problem still occurs. From what I can make out, the problem occurs in the install_steps.pm perl script around line 180. I don't know if this relevant, but my system is currently configured with hda as a 1gb windows drive on a promise controller. The 80gb drive that has linux on it is hde. This is how the MDK 9.0 install configured them. The MDK 9.1 installer sees the 80gb drive first, and so makes it hda. I was wondering if it's using my systems fstab file and getting itself confused? ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: During the initial stages of the Madrake installer the option to upgrade from a previous version is selected. The installer then asks what keyboard is required, and what security level is needed. After the security level is set, a message appears saying: "An error occured: Opps, no root partition found" The only button available to click is "ok" which reloads the error. The PC is currently running Mandrake 9.0, installed on an 80GB drive on a Promise U133 raid controller. A 13GB drive is located on the motherboad's controller, with Windows XP installed. MDK 9.1 Beta 3 exibits the same error, however the error does not occur with the Mandrake 9.0 installer. The partitions on the drive were originally set up automatically by the MDK 9.0 installer. I have tried removing the 13GB drive from the system, but this has no effect.
