During update the existing "kernel-pae" was replaced with a "kernel-desktop".
When rebooting, however, initrd did not contain a module "reiserfs" and the
system failed to boot.
Examining the situation I found out that the old kernel RPM was still
installed, as well as the new one (AFAIR). When trying to build the initrd,
dependency problems were reported, so I tried "depmod -a". That had problems
dealing with that situation. After removing the old kernel and running "depmod
-a", the "mkinitrd" suceeded, and after rebooting everything was fine.
Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update your system
Actual Results:
Update fails at reboot
Expected Results:
Reboot should succeed
