I do hope that the sole cause of these is the previous partitioning tries. Therefore, however, it might be necessary to zero the entire disk (or well, actually only those positions around the previous beginning of sdb5 +/- 4kb maybe). You might want to try to make dd do this for you (dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb2 count=8 should do, but that's just off the top of my head) and then do another reinstall. > Thank you so much for your efforts! > You are welcome! Thank you very much for your help in debugging this!!! (And sorry for breaking it in the first place...) Best regards, Michael
