Hi Paul, wow that was fast. I'm too busy trying to recover it right now. Also, I don't have a install.log. I did find a anaconda.syslog if that's what you're referring too.Yikes, that should not be happening. Did you report a bug in Bugzilla, and attach your install.log and install.log.syslog in the bug? That was part of my complain ;-), I didn't set that up. It's by mirror it seems.If disks are set up in a mirror, you're generally restricted to the size of the original disk. If you set up *partitions* in a mirror, though, you have more flexibility. My point was more philosophical: I like to have control on whats installed/activated.... that's one of the Linux features I always liked.2) During installation, I wish I had the choice to make SE Linux optional. As it was with previous releases.There's practically no reason for it now -- I run in enforcing mode all the time and I can't remember the last time I even noticed, let alone had a problem. That doesn't mean there aren't SELinux policy improvements waiting to be made. If you encounter a bug, file it, because we do send out policy updates quickly to fix them. Ok maybe I'm missing something. If I look at /dev/disk, I would expect that every disk or partition to be listed in every subdirectory there: by-id, by-label.Things are generally handled with labels now, which are more flexible and don't rely on easily-broken device names like /dev/sda. Also, there's a /dev/disk/* area you can use which I find is really helpful when I'm looking for a specific disk. I don't have to know whether it's sda, sdb, sdf... which is good, especially now that 187-in-1 media readers (or whatever it's up to today) are so popular! I'd also expect that every entry there is listed in fdisk -l. Am I wrong? Ok that means it's me. I'm positive I don't have processes running on it though. I have to unplug it.Hm, that's interesting, because I have an external hard drive on a machine here that does sleep just like it should when unused. So it's not a system wide problem. Do you have any processes running which might be using the drive? thanks for the quick, and knowledgeable, response. best, mauri |
