The box is a UP2000+ with an Adaptec 39160 controller. There are (2) drives attached, one on each channel. The dka device is partitioned and formatted for Tru64 Unix. Dkb has (3) other Linux distributions installed and has been partitioned with a BSD disklabel scheme. I'm trying to install onto an unused partition on dkb. The installer trips over dka, telling me that the partition table is unreadable and asking if I want to reinitialize it. I answer "no". It then tells me that dkb is unreadable as well! When I tell it not to initialize that disk, it terminates with an error (thinking that no disks are available). The question is: why can't the installer read the partition information on either drive? Granted, it won't know about AdvFS on dka, but it still should have read the disklabel. And, since the Linux distros on dkb are functional there's no reason it should have problems of any sort. Any advice as to how I proceed with installation and avoid repartitioning the second disk?
