The kernel update to 2.6.25.4-2 failed with the same error described here, i have not file referencing the initrd symlink in /boot.

Fortunately the default for an install (and re-install ;-( ) is to not format the home directory - whew! The 1.7 GB download of updates kind of gets a little too much I have to say. So I'll quit whining and hope we have a step by step resolution for those of us that need a little help with this one. -- 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.
