--nextPart1967587.eM1q2raHKA Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline Hello, since sysinstall crashes when there is a disk with GPT I think GEMO_GPT sho= uld=20 be removed from the GENERIC kernel. I just shoot myself into the foot: In /boot.config I defined -n -d instead = of=20 =2DD and so the box was unusable and I also couldn't correct my mistake bec= ause=20 the fixit CD didn't boot. What I really would prefer was a fixit CD which boots to a shell instead of= =20 sysinstall, but I haven't had a look into release how hard this would be to= =20 do since I think many steps for disc2 are copied from disc1. Or sysinstall gets fixed, but like Marcel Moolenaar told me there are lots = of=20 bugs in libdisk and only sysinstall uses this library so it's unlikely that= =20 they'll be fixed.
