https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=687273 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=687273#c0 Summary: DVD installation of openSuSE11.4 fails on system with UEFI firmware Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.4 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.4 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: arindam.nath@amd.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- Created an attachment (id=424730) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=424730) Screenshot of the failure message during installation User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.16) Gecko/20110319 Firefox/3.6.16 While installing openSuSE11.4 x86_64 on a system with UEFI firmware, the installation fails just at the end while installing bootloader. The message displays "/sbin/elilo: no such file or directory". Looking into the installation DVD, efibootmgr and elilo packages are missing. If we directly install openSuSE11.4 from the repository, installation finishes fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable UEFI in BIOS. 2. Drop to the UEFI shell, and start the installation from DVD. Actual Results: Installation fails at the end with error message "/sbin/elilo: no such file or directory". Expected Results: Installation should complete without fail. The issue has been found to reproduce on AMD Cobia platform, but this should be a generic issue for UEFI based installation. -- 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.
