------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-07 05:28 ------- Norton, under Windows XP, says the partition is IFS, but the filesystem is NTFS. There is evidently some additional information that needs to be looked at to determine what type of file system is there. One I update fstab to say it is ntfs, it seems to work ok, or at least as well as everyone else is seeing ntfs work. This is a working primary bootable partition with Windows XP Pro installed on it and running fine. The only thing slightly different about my system is having System Commander installed, but I don't think that should alter the partition type. ------- 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: When installing RC1, and after completing the installation, diskdrake thought that /dev/hda1 was "Hidden IFS (e.g. HPFS)", and generated a fstab that would not allow the partition to be mounted. By selecting NTFS in the fstab, the partition would mount and work properly. There was some discussion about NTFS being detected as HPFS before on the cooker list. This appaears to be neither detecting as NTFS or HPFS, but as some variant of HPFS. Since Windows XP generated the partition in question, this may be an issue for many first time users.
