I'm not bothering to file a real bug about this unless someone tells me otherwise, because it's an odd case and we all want to get a stable release out the door. But I'm sending a message here so that if it happens to be trivial to fix, someone will do it.
I was testing s390 installation under Hercules. Because the installer does not seem to currently support FBA disks, and that is what I must use due to a bug with ECKD disks, I had to initialize and mount my root filesystem manually. This would not be a problem, except that dbootstrap doesn't recognize that I have done so. If I: 1. mke2fs device 2. mount on /target 3. "Mount a previously-initialized partition" dbootstrap (as expected) tells me that it can't find any suitable partitions, but then after "continue", notices that I have mounted it and moves on. If instead, I: 1. mke2fs -j device 2. mount on /target 3. "Mount a previously-initalized partition" dbootstrap leaves me at the "partition a hard disk" step with no way to continue. -- - mdz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
