thanks for your workaround. I tried the installaion with the alternative
installer (the good old text version) and this time I had no trouble. My
hardware is:
Benq laptop Joybook 5100G:
Intel M with 1,7 GHz and 512 Mb RAM
60 GB HD, Ethernet on board, Centrion chip set with wlan g+ standard,
Ati mobility 9700 with 64MB RAM
the goal is three partions, one for the system and one for the users + swap
under XFS (what about reiserfs ?)

I hope this helps you a little bit to forge the drapper drake rock solid :-)

Otherwise I found the drapper RC worked better than SuSE 10.1 on this laptop!
keep going pls :-D

best regards,
Marcus
