Please > try it out. I tried it on a HP ZX6000 on an empty scsi disk (id 1). There are a FreeBSD 5.1 installation (id 0) and an otherwise used disk (id 2), which I don't want to modfiy. 1. Installation created a gpt disk label and completed. When rebooting, neither the EFI boot manager, nor the EFI built in shell could access a slice/partition on the disk. The loader was not found. EFI version 1.10 [14.60] EFI64 Running on Intel(R) Itanium Processor Family EFI 1.10 IPF zx6000/rx2600/zx2000 1.22 [Mon Oct 7 16:41:11 2002] - HP EFI Boot Manager ver 1.10 [14.60] Firmware ver 1.61 [4241] 2. I created an msdos slice with fat32, using ia64-Linux. Unlike 5.1, the snapshot didn't offer the wanted disk, but only the 3rd disk. I see no way to prepare the wanted disk, that the installation will go there. 3. I removed the disks 0 and 2, plugged the empty disk to id 0. The installation aborted, because it didn't find any disk. Joachim -- Joachim Fehn Joachim.Fehn@fujitsu-siemens.com
