Description Eros Albertazzi 2007-02-20 12:52:04 UTC

Command: /sbin/yast2 disk &
Segmentation fault at Storage.ycp:1416
/sbin/yast2: line 274:  3965 Segmentation fault      $ybindir/y2base $module "$@
" "$SELECTED_GUI" "$Y2_GEOMETRY" $Y2QT_ARGS


The partition program crashes when I have five disks attached, but it is ok if I have one. (indeed I partitioned and installed on root)

Need y2log files.
How much memory do you have?

Comment 2 Thomas Fehr 2007-02-20 13:02:08 UTC

Additioanlly the output of "rpm -qa | grep yast2-storage" would be interesting.

Comment 4 Thomas Fehr 2007-02-20 13:49:49 UTC

This is a duplicate of bug #223843.
Problem is caused by a invalid dmraid on your disk /dev/sdc.
The command "dmraid -s -c -c -c" detects a dmraid on /dev/sdc and when YaST2
trys to query the dmraid it is not really there and YaST2 crases.
I assume you are not really using the dmraid on /dev/sdc but it just happens
to be there because the disk was part of a dmraid in a previous syste.

The bug that causes YaST2 crashing is already fixed in current code base for 
SL 10.3.

You have the following possibilities as workaround:
- remove raid signature on /dev/sdc by calling "dmraid -E -r /dev/sdc"
- set the environment variable YAST2_STORAGE_NO_DMRAID before calling YaST2.
  This tells YaST2 to skip dmraid detection.
