Dear Folks, Am installing Fedora 16 on my son's iMac 27 inch. The installer wants an additional 2 MB 'BIOS boot' partition. The only trouble is that I can only make four primary partitions, and this increases the required count to five, as far as I can tell. Current partitioning scheme: sda1 200 MB EFI System Partition sda2 20467 MB hfs+ [contains MacOS] sda3 250 MB ext4 /boot sda4 748746 MB LVM physical volume The LVM is partitioned into: 5024 MB swap 50016 MB / 693696 MB /home The installation will not proceed; the error message box says, Partitioning Errors The partitioning scheme you requested caused the following critical errors you have not created a bootloader stage 1 target device You must correct these errors before you continue your installation of Fedora. ========== I am using rEFIt. I was not able to create any logical partitions. Any suggestions here, so that MacOS can still be booted, as well as Fedora be installed? I take it this is required for Grub2. I have had Fedora 15 and earlier running fine on this machine with a similar partitioning arrangement. Does anyone have any suggestions? Can I tell anaconda to go ahead and install anyway so I can come back with a rescue disk and install grub 1? -- Nick Urbanik http://nicku.org nicku@xxxxxxxxx GPG: 7FFA CDC7 5A77 0558 DC7A 790A 16DF EC5B BB9D 2C24 ID: BB9D2C24 -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
