This Bug here describes that the upgrade installation will damage an existing grub/menu.lst and so after upgrade Suse it is not anymore possible to boot windows. If have also named the reason for this behavior. Upgrade installer will unnecessarily change the (working) windows section(s).

There are also saved settings from yast2-bootloader. Without logs I don't know write you where is the problem exactly. Message from y2log_bootloader: "Error 21: Selected disk does not exist" could help but I don't know anything about your disk(s), partitions etc. Please provide: /boot/grub/menu.lst /etc/grub.conf and last (date/time) 3 y2log-X from /var/log/YaST2 and also y2log file (it is actual logfile for YaST) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

It probably includes line: "(hd0) /dev/hda" Could you change it to "(hd0) /dev/sda" please?

There's only one 150GB Samsung disk and it was never hda. At least not when 10.3 was installed. My guess is that Carsten did upgrade his 75GB disk (that was indeed hda) at some point and the grub device.map was left unchanged. Sorry, I see no way to track this kind of disk change.

I've upgraded the harddisk 2 Years or so ago but this PC is a Laptop, so how should the interface change from hdx to sdx with changing to a greater Harddisk ? There is only one harddisk interface. I think already the first installed Suse Version was 10.0 or maybe older and the kernel of this version has used hdx instead of sdx.

yast2-bootloader _might_ have noticed the invalid device.map, though. Maybe it could give a warning or such.

Maybe creating a new one with the actual parameters ? Why touching the Windows Sections in menu.lst at all in case of upgrade ??? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

(user changed disk) I am sorry but I tried to update system correctly. yast2-storage returns same name for disk (/dev/hda). IMO it is not goal of yast2-bootloader check if user change hardware ;-) Other problems with windows sections depend on the same problem of wrong disk in device.map -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
