[Bug 356500] New: GRUB Error 23 after kernel update
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=356500 Summary: GRUB Error 23 after kernel update Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bg@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- On a freshly installed machine, grub refuses to boot after doing a kernel update. It just tells Error 23: Error parsing number. The reason for this is, that with the kernel update, the syntax for the root entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst has changed. Before the update, it used: root (hd0,1) After the update, it just failed with: root (/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_SAMSUNG_HM160HCS12TJD0PB99656-part2,1) I still can boot this system by changing this entry back to (hd0,1). Note: although this system has a software raid, the system disk is not attached to this raid. In fact, the system disk is no SATA disk at all. This is just a PATA disk. After booting the system, the id from menu.lst is available in the system and it pretends that there was a SATA drive.
