Failing to install HF10 on 10.2.4
I am trying to install HF10 for 10.2.4. I can install HF7 with out issue. I have tried in two different partitions. HD1.1 and HD1.2 I have pulled the file down twice.
The error I am seeing in the log files is - sfdisk: ERROR: sector 8338176 does not have an msdos signature, which I took to be an error for the 11.x version. Full log below.
Has anyone else experienced this ?

are you still running partitions on your 10.2.4 installation?
then hf9 and hf10 won't work and you have to request an engineering hotfix.
when you do that please complain at F5 for not clearly documenting this :)

if you are already running volumes then it might be a disk issue, i would open a support case.
