Problem with partitionning on SCSI disk

Hello,

I have a problem with partitionning a SCSI disk when I boot a client with
PXE/DHCP.

Here the classes of the client and the disk_config class (1750_SCSI):

server:/home/fai/client/last# cat FAI_CLASSES 
DEFAULT
LINUX
I386
1750_SCSI
TEST
MBR
LILO
NETWORK
FRENCH
SCSI
NONIS
client
LAST

server:/opt/fai/disk_config# cat 1750_SCSI 
# <type> <mountpoint> <size in mb> [mount options]     [;extra options]

disk_config sda
primary  -              preserve1
logical  /              400     errors=remount-ro       ;-j ext3
logical  /usr           5000                            ;-j ext3
logical  /var           5000                            ;-j ext3
logical  /home          3000                            ;-j ext3
logical  /tmp           3000                            ;-j ext3
logical  /var/tmp       3000                            ;-j ext3
logical  swap           2000
logical  /opt           1-                              ;-j ext3

FAI don't create my partitions correctly :

/dev/sda1:  x86 boot sector
/dev/sda10: can't read `/dev/sda10' (No such device or address).
/dev/sda11: can't read `/dev/sda11' (No such device or address).
/dev/sda12: can't read `/dev/sda12' (No such device or address).
/dev/sda13: can't read `/dev/sda13' (No such device or address).
/dev/sda14: can't read `/dev/sda14' (No such device or address).
/dev/sda15: can't read `/dev/sda15' (No such device or address).
/dev/sda2:  can't read `/dev/sda2' (No such device or address).
[...]
/dev/sda9:  can't read `/dev/sda9' (No such device or address).

And why FAI will read /dev/sda13 -> /dev/sda15 ? I have only partitions up
to /dev/sda12.
I will preserve /dev/sda1, because it's a partition with DELL utilities.

My kernel is a 2.4.22, with megaraid patch v1.18j for AMI/LSI RAID
Controller.
I used the last version of FAI.
Normaly all drivers are compiled in this kernel. I don't use modules.

I attach with this mail my rcS.log.

Very thanks for your help.

Yann
