I had a similar problem when installing over a SUSE 10.1 installation. It turned out to be a problem with the naming of a Volume group with a dash "-" in the name. Some of the previous threads have addressed this issue I believe. Does your previous linspire installation use volume groups? <div>On 10/8/06, Dr. Diesel <<a href="mailto:dr.diesel@gmail.com">dr.diesel@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> No reiserfs, I was surprised! Linspire (I bought it only for the cheap $149 hardware!) apparently uses one partition, ext3 only!
