[Bug 337376] New: kernel update 2.6.22.5-31 doesn't create initrd
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=337376 Summary: kernel update 2.6.22.5-31 doesn't create initrd Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Blocker Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: seupel@web.de QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- The latest kernel 2.6.22.5-31-default from installation DVD has a bug in postinstall script that prevents creation of initrd, making system unbootable. This blocks update of an existing installation (with separate /BOOT partition). Booting installed system from installation DVD and running mkinitrd does not work at this point, because login doesn't work. The problem was described already for kernel 2.6.22.5-12 (Bug 308970), bug report was closed as SOLVED FIXED (really ?). The problem seems to exist already since version 10.2 (Bug 290959). I cannot believe, that this long known problem is still on my retail DVD. -- 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.
