https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=227881 Summary: Installation of the Grub boot manager fails on OpenSuSE 10.2 Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Blocker Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: mauro.vittorini@telecomitalia.it QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Dear Madam or Sir, first excuse me for my bad English. I have a PC based on a ASUS P4V8X-MX (VIA P4M800M) motherboard, on which was working OpenSuSE 10.1. Yesterday I tried to install OpenSuSE 10.2, but the whole installation failed during the installation of the Grub boot manager, with an error message like the following one: GRUB > setup -- stage2 = /boot/grub/stage2 (hd0) (/dev/hdd,1) error 23 : while parsing number I think this error is due to the fact that the SATA RAID controller (VIA VT8237R Plus south bridge) of the motherboard is not properly recognised by the installation process, even if no RAID is working since there is only one HDD in JBOD mode and the RAID feature in the BIOS is disabled. Is there any patch or workaround to solve this problem? Is it normal that now when the system start-up there are both the option of booting OpenSuSE 10.1 and OpenSuSE 10.2, even if this last option clearly does not work at all? I hope in a fast solution to this critical trouble. Thank you very much.
