Install fails [Solved]

[JohnKS]

Hi: AMD Athlon XII quad core. Trying to install Sabayon x64 KDE 5.2. Installation fails right after installer tries to partition HDD. Happens each time so no successful install yet. Log file attached. Would appreciate any insight. Live version installed fine.

This has been seen before (5.5? [Solved]). I think it's a problem with the Anaconda installer. The solution is almost certainly to perform a manual partition of you HDD instead of letting the installer do it automatically.

Thanks for your reply. A manual partition allowed the install. Still, I wouldn't exactly say this is [solved] in that, at least in my case, the automatic partitioner option simply didn't work. However, I thank you for your help. It was good information. John

A new version of the Red Hat Anaconda installer is being ported to SL, so perhaps this particular problem is resolved in the new version.

You click on EDIT for your first post of the thread, not your last post, to add the "[Solved]" to the Subject. I'll do it for you this time.
