Package: debian-installer Version: 5.0 Severity: important When attempting to install on my Dell XPS M1330 partitioning correctly detects my disk but only offers me the option of creating an entirely new partition table (either manually or via guided install). It does not offer me the ability to use or modify my existing partitions.
The kernel and fdisk both recognise the partitions, fdisk reporting the partition table as: Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk identifier: 0x28000000 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 30075 30402 2620416 c W95 FAT32 (LBA) /dev/sda2 16 1321 10485760 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/sda3 * 1321 11853 84602539+ 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/sda4 11854 30402 148988123 f W95 Ext'd (LBA) /dev/sda5 30075 30402 2620416 dd Unknown /dev/sda6 * 11854 29330 140383971 83 Linux /dev/sda7 29331 30074 5976148+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris Partition table entries are not in disk order -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
