Package: installation-reports
Version: debian 7 i386 installer build 20130430
Boot method: USB stick
I wanted to delete old partitions and create RAID partition on hard
drive.
During installation:
- I clicked on the disk driver (sda) - to delete partition
- installer asked: do you want to start with new partition table?
- I chose yes
- installer asked to confirm it will destroy a RAID.
- confirmed, yes
But nothing was deleted.
Work-around: delete the raid first. Configure RAID - delete RAID -
delete md0. Then delete partition tables (start over).
How it should work: it should deleted the RAID that used this driver.
OR: also: some function to totally start over (delete all partition
tables, all RAIDs, all LVMs, all DM/crypto). But how it should work for
several hard drives?
OR: function to manually partition WITHOUT auto-using existing things.
It will skip auto-detecting RAID, LVM, DM/crypto. It would also solve
most of the bugs regarding problems when overwriting on old partially
broken or incompatible disk systems.
