[ros-dev] Re : Re : Pacth: Freeldr disk geometry bug

[Sylvain Petreolle]

Got to the same result here, bootcd manages to install and boot to 3rd stage 
using another boot disk to create partitions.

How did you create the 2nd partition ? Usetup adds an erroneous 3rd partition 
when creating a 2nd one.


 Kind regards,
Sylvain Petreolle
