Subject: [9fans] fdsik suicide while installing
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 7c5ad94e-ead5-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

I have a dell inspiron 700m. I can boot the install cd just fine and
everything seems to work out of the box. I select a fossil
fileserver.
When I get to the partdisk task, it shows my harddrive as sdC0. I
select
that and I get

fdisk 1040: suicide:sys:trap: divide error pc=0x00825d4


sdc0 is reported as a Toshiba MK4026GAX, its a 40gb harddrive. I have
tried it with out dma and with, no difference. I have tried manually
running it
and have had the same result. The number (1040) after fdisk changes,
is that
number of the command in rc? i.e. the 1040th command run, but the pc
number
stays the same.

I downloaded the install cd today, if that makes a difference.

Thanks
Bob
