[Bug 417492] New: LVM based system can not boot after install
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=417492 Summary: LVM based system can not boot after install Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Final Platform: 64bit OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: eike.welk@post.rwth-aachen.de QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- The installation DVD sometimes creates a system that can not boot. I tried to install openSuse 11.0 with an installation DVD. I chose a system that uses LVM, but I changed the partitioning. After the installation the system completed to boot and seemed fine. But when I tried to reboot the system the boot process stopped directly after the BIOS messages. The screen was empty, and only showed a single underscore in the upper left corner. (I write this from memory, sorry for any inaccurate observations.) I suspect that GRUB was broken. The system could be repaired with the installation DVD. Hardware: AMD 64 processor, Asus M2A-VM mainboard, two SATA disks fstab: eike@lixie:~> cat /etc/fstab /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_SAMSUNG_HD501LJS0MUJDWQ357628-part1 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/system/root / ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 1 /dev/system/backup /backup ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 2 /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_SAMSUNG_HD501LJS0MUJDWQ357628-part2 /boot ext3 acl,user_xattr 1 2 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs noauto 0 0 debugfs /sys/kernel/debug debugfs noauto 0 0 usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts mode=0620,gid=5 0 0 /dev/sdb1 /back-ext ext3 user,noauto,acl,user_xattr 0 0 -- 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.

From logs the first disk could be /dev/sdb. I would like to verify it.
