Hi! I thought I had added this info, but I've looked now and I cannot see it here, so I'm sending it "again".
Well, the thing is that I have managed to reproduce this in two more machines, and I have gathered enough info to get the pattern that makes this bug appear. This bug appears on every machine where I have installed sbm as my master boot record, it has happened on my laptop, which has a 20 gigs disk with just two partitions, and also a 40 gigs disk with 3 partitions. So, to be able to replicate this bug install sbm (available in Debian), into the mbr of your hard drive and then try to use find-partitions on it. This is what new find-partitions in sid (0.20) outputs on my laptop when run in my installed debian (no devfs available): /dev/hda fat16 19 GiB /dev/hda1 512 B /dev/hda2 512 B However, find-partitions in beta-2 cds (0.19) and the one in latest sid_d-i (0.20) outputs this: /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 fat16 19 GiB While the partition the HD has is like this: /dev/hda1 1 2400 19277968+ 83 Linux /dev/hda2 2401 2432 257040 82 Linux swap Hope this helps a bit. I really believe this problem should be solved. If you cannot reproduce it by installing sbm in your HD, just tell me and I'll try to investigate the problem even more.
