My intention is to install openSUSE 13.2 (DVD-Installation on USB-Stick) beside
an existing production system openSUSE 12.3. I install openSUSE 13.2 on
/dev/sdb8 (ext4) without Grub2 boot loader because I want to use the Grub2 boot
loader from openSUSE 12.3.

/etc/fstab from openSUSE 13.2:
UUID=757d8266-0144-4016-ab8c-51a741d2d530 swap                 swap      
defaults              0 0
UUID=10c0137f-ebb8-4ae3-9207-678ed9772597 /                    ext4      
acl,user_xattr        1 1

After reboot I execute grub2-mkconfig in openSUSE 12.3 and get this part in
grub.cfg for openSUSE 13.2:

menuentry 'openSUSE 13.2 (x86_64) (auf /dev/sdb8)' --class gnu-linux --class
gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option
'osprober-gnulinux-simple-10c0137f-ebb8-4ae3-9207-678ed9772597' {
        insmod part_msdos
        insmod ext2
        set root='hd2,msdos8'
        if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
          search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd1,msdos8
--hint-efi=hd1,msdos8 --hint-baremetal=ahci1,msdos8 --hint='hd2,msdos8' 
10c0137f-ebb8-4ae3-9207-678ed9772597
        else
          search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root
10c0137f-ebb8-4ae3-9207-678ed9772597
        fi
        linux /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sdb8
}

After booting into the fresh installed openSUSE 13.2. It mount the root file
system as readonly.

I get from systemd journal for the related part:

Next step I try to add a boot parameter rootfstype=ext4 and get also a readonly
file system.


I get from systemd journal for the related part now:

I try to chroot into the openSUSE 13.2 system and run "zypper update". After
executing of mkinitrd I reboot the system again but the root file system is
still mounted as readonly.

This is very annoying for me and openSUSE 13.2 is absolutely unusable with this
installation method. As a contributor of packaging script for AMD Catalyst
Driver I need several fresh installed openSUSE installation on a real hardware
to verify the package build and the package installation of the fglrx driver.

I attach both journctl log files.
