You could try installing using prep-installer, which should work on your system, but you need to create a prep partition, and i guess partman-prep doesn't recognize your box as needing a prep aprtition. Colin, would you comment on this, i believe we need some other kind of sanity checks, one that makes sure that there is a prep partition on such machine, even though they use yaboot. I wonder why partman-prep did not do the right thing though. > the disk only cdrom and vlan adapter was available , I am configuring it > manually on VIO as explained in the manual from the top of my head i > guess it was > cd /sys/device/vio/300000{hexadecimal of virtual slotnumber}/bus0/target0/ > echo 0 > active # i guess to disable disk > echo "my lvm part" > device > echo b > type # what this b means ? > echo 0 > ro # i guess this is to make partition rw and **not** Ro > > is there anything I am missing after this ? why is it that when i boot > from cdrom and load the ibmvscsi driver i could see the disk but not > from the sms prompt No idea. > well once I capture upto this point than i will start further.
