Bug 231172

While trying to install openSUSE 10.2 over a previous installation with openSUSE 10.1 YaST reported, that it is not able to read or manipulate the partition table of my i2o-harddrive (RAID-System from Fujitsu-Siemens). I had to delete the disk label and all informations about the previous partitions was lost. While I accepted this on my test system this is not acceptable for a production system.

Now, after installing openSUSE 10.2, I realizied that YaST is not able to read the partition table of the system installed by the same YaST!?? YaST gives the output that it is not possible to read the partition with "parted". After accepting this message I am only shown the disk with no partitions at all!

When using "parted" in a shell I get the following informations (with shows that parted seems to read the informations quite well):

(parted) print

Disk /dev/i2o/hda: 146GB

 5      46.2GB  99.9GB  53.7GB  logical   ext3         , , , , , , , , , type=83, ,

Is it possible to fix this? Would be great!
