    10.2 installs, 10.3 will not

    I am setting up a new 'utility' system - 10.2 installed with no problem. I decided to install 10.3 but it does not seem to recognize my partitions. I can install anyway but on the first reboot leading to the config stage, it fails to find the partitions. It also fails to allow me to upgrade 10.2 to 10.3.

    I have the same problem with my p/c. For some reason 10.3 does not read my partition table correctly - AMD 64 x 2 4200 Gigabyte GA-K8N-SLI (nForce 4SLI) 512 x 2 PC3200 CL3 184 2 x sata drives.

    Like you I tried a fresh install and also the upgrade route. Also tried manually setting the drive order when installing. All without success so I gave up and went back to 10.2 in the end.
