I guess I missed that "/dev/sdb2". I was looking for it to use "/dev/sda2", which I had created and formatted to use as an EFI partition. I looked through the logs. I could not find the other messages. Maybe they weren't logged. In any case, repeating this would require that I reformat everything on the disk back to empty file systems. It's not worth the effort.

I just did an install of "openSUSE-FTT-DVD-x86_64-Snapshot20140528-Media.iso". On completing the partitioning section, there was a popup with this message: "Warning: With your current setup, your openSUSE installation will encounter problems when booting, because you have no FAT partition mounted on "/boot/efi". That was the first paragraph of the message (I hand-wrote it). I told it to ignore the problem and continue. I'll note that I did have "/dev/sda2" mounted as "/boot/efi" (in the partitioning setup). It is formatted as FAT and flagged as an EFI partition. The message was clearly wrong. The install completed without problems. The system boots successfully. It boots into emergency mode, but that's due to an entirely different problem (I'll report that as a separate bug). -- 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 here is that sda has a bios-grub partition (which is AFAIK not needed on EFI machines).

Interesting. Thanks. You are right, that this is not normally needed on an EFI machine. However, I'm using this as a test machine, and I want to be able to install non-EFI systems (such as 32bit systems) for testing. That's why I created that grub partition. Thanks for fixing. -- 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.
