So if it was downgraded then maybe by one the the grub %pre/post scripts. Passing it to the bootloader wizards... Initially installed were: grub-0.97-185.1.2.x86_64 grub2-2.00-1.23.1.x86_64 grub2-branding-openSUSE-12.2-11.12.1.noarch grub2-i386-pc-2.00-19.2.1.x86_64 Zypper dup updated to:

!> install grub-0.97-188.1.1.x86_64[openSUSE-isodvd-12.3-RC1] !> install grub2-2.00-19.2.1.x86_64[openSUSE-isodvd-12.3-RC1] !> install grub2-branding-openSUSE-12.3-6.2.8.noarch[openSUSE-isodvd-12.3-RC1] !> install grub2-efi-2.00-19.2.1.x86_64[openSUSE-isodvd-12.3-RC1] !> install grub2-x86_64-efi-2.00-19.2.1.x86_64[openSUSE-isodvd-12.3-RC1]

All things done via the yast2 bootloader or not ? Thanks. -- 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.

The perl bootloader is responsible for this (update bootloader during package update or mkinitrd or whatever ..) but I really didn't see that it would actively switch to other bootloader unless explicit asked to do it.s Thanks. -- 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.

I just remember wondering, after "zypper dup", what would've happened to the bootloader, so I checked it in the (terminal) YaST bootloader module, and was surprised to see that GRUB, not GRUB2, was selected. If this cannot be reproduced on other machines, then I guess we can assume it was because of some weird setting, probably accidental. Again, the only thing I can think of is that the RPMs were installed for both GRUB and GRUB2. But if things work normally for everyone else, then go ahead and close "worksforme". -- 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.
