Looking back in my paper notes (saying 5 swap, 6 /home, 7 /) I most probally has reported it incorrectly.

You can boot the installation DVD, switch to 2nd console (ctrl+alt+F2) and mount the system to grab the /var/log/YaST2 directory as well as the files I mentioned above. Hopefully they help finding any lead to the root of this problem. -- 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.

So i finish to install OpenSuSE 11.1 in my T61p. Then i boot and run the setup again but select the rescue mode system. I mount my root partition and found that the device.map had: (hd0) /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST9160823AS_5NK0FW4J i changed to (hd0) /dev/sda And run root and setup again and it works perfectly well. I am not sure what is the error creating the device map, but it has something to do. -- 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 problem occurs everytime when installing a second system (I've got always my stable system on sda1 and another root partition sda7 with a testing system). When rebooting it says Error 22 or No system found, as described above. It doesn't find the new or the old GRUB. I fixed it with the "Recover installed system" from the DVD. It reinstalls GRUB on the first system (sda1), I make a direct entry for the second system (sda7) and it works. I'll send you my yast log if you wish to. -- 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.

This bug is about GRUB failing to install at all, not about its (successful) installation being destroyed later. (the parted issue which I'm aware is that YaST calls parted, but not GRUB at all afterwares). If you refer to different issue of parted, I think that this bug may become a duplicate. But I think it is more likely related to the problem with long names (see comment #12). On the other hand, I agree with you that having dedicated primary partition for GRUB is much more than desirable. -- 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 same error occured and the system gave me also the opportunity to change in Yast the bootloader settings. The only thing that I have changed is the root device in section management from an abbreviated textual device description to /dev/sda7 and than it installed grub correctly. The harddisk was the 1st device in bootloader installation details.
