Trying to install RC2 iso to Pent III class server with SCSI raid 5.  Raid was wiped clean.  Allowing software install to format and use its default settings.  Appears to find hard drive array just fine.  Gets so far into the install and begins working with Grub.  Then stops with Error 22 – no such partition.

Mmm, problems with hardware ? 🙁 Probably you need to do a “standard” install, from .RPM / .DEB packages. Iso has been tested with several different hardware, but sure there will be cases like yours when is not supported 🙁

It’s a very know error on grub, u can search it on google and opensuse forums.

Try this to fix it, it’s a possible solution.

Boot from a suse live cd/dvd, and start the installation on hd. After you boot onto your sistem, go inside yast/system/partitioner, and change the option “default Mount by” on settings tab to Device ID or uuid, this should change the mount to something like /dev/sda1 to /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-1494554000000000000000000010000005c1200000d000000-part1 or /dev/disk/by-uuid/612a0ea6-b9fd-4dfb-b954-e39288c348f5 for ex.

After this, back to yast menu and reinstall grub.

This can solve your problem.
