The first screenshot shows sdb2 as ext3, not as ext4. I've zeroed the beginning of the disk, then used guided partitioning for the entire disk, asking for /home to be on a separate partition. You are right, all messages in partman implied that partition is ext3, yet /proc/mounts showed it as ext4 when I mounted it manually from the shell. I'll try to get the logs and fdisk output after partitioning.

So the free space shown in partman *is* really there (although it shouldn't be). And sdb2 is completely wrong as it's way too small for a root fs. I think this may be the result of new partition alignment code in parted. The error is certainly in libparted as the log shows the following. Creation of first partition (100MB for /boot; looks OK): /bin/perform_recipe: IN: NEW_PARTITION =dev=sdb primary ext2 0-72908881919 beginning 10001 parted_server: OUT: 1 0-99614719 99614720primary ext2 /dev/sdb1 Creation of second partition (7GB for /): /bin/perform_recipe: IN: NEW_PARTITION =dev=sdb primary ext3 99614720-72908881919 beginning 71 parted_server: OUT: 2 16845373440-16846422015 1048576 primary ext3 /dev/sdb2 So partman requests a partition of 7GB, but libparted creates one of 1MB. Looks broken to me. The swap partition has the same problem: partman requests ~2GB, but we get only 1MB. Here's the fdisk output and illustration of the mounting error: ~ # mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb2 /target/ mount: mounting /dev/sdb2 on /target/ failed: Invalid argument This is a consequence of the error above. The syslog shows: May 2 17:12:42 partman: mke2fs 1.41.11 (14-Mar-2010) May 2 17:12:42 partman: Filesystem too small for a journal So, the FS is too small for a journal and therefore not a valid ext3 filesystem. But apparently ext4 is able to mount it (and you should also be able to mount it as ext2). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
