What happens if you remove the partitioning info? Forrest yup. Same results when I add: zerombr yes It's like there are no IDE drivers being loaded. On <alt>+f4 I see a message: "unable to identify CDROM format" -- Ryan -----Original Message----- From: Taylor, ForrestX [mailto:forrestx.taylor@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, December 20, 2001 12:21 PM To: 'kickstart-list@xxxxxxxxxx' Subject: RE: fdisk: can't find /dev/hda I switched to the boot.img floppy to put my ks.cfg on, and now I'm getting a strange error: Could not allocate requested partitions: Partitioning failed: Could not allocate partitions. Press OK to reboot your system. at the console (alt+F2), I try 'fdisk /dev/had' with the error "unable to open /dev/hda" . Is this a bug? Does this kernel not have IDE block devices compiled in? Anybody know the work around? ## A sample from my ks.cfg file: This worked fine with the bootnet.img disk bootloader --location=mbr install cdrom clearpart all part /boot --fstype ext3 --size 30 part / --fstype ext3 --size 3256 part swap --size 512 Thanks, -- Ryan Did you try the zerombr yes option?
