Subject: [suse-sparc] Install troubles on Ultra Sparc 10.

    I've got an UltraSparc Station 10 and am trying to load SuSE 7.3.
     
    It keeps dieing with the following error:
     
    Fdisk failed.
     
    The disk has an unsupported partition table: please repartition disk
    /dev/had.
     
    I've tried this with 2 different eide drives; the 1st which is the original
    is a seagate 8 GB and second is a 40 GB Maxtor I had in an i386 Linux
    installation. I've tried to let it decide the partions for me and I've
    tried to partition it manually. I've even done an alt-F2 and ran fdisk from
    the command line! Please help, I'm new to SuSE but have been around in the
    Linux community for a very long time!!
     
    Thanks,
    Chris
