[Bug 333514] New: Repair installed system unavailable on 10.3 PPC DVD
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=333514 Summary: Repair installed system unavailable on 10.3 PPC DVD Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: PowerPC OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Maintenance AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: dbolt.abiryy@davjam.org QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- The PPC release no longer has the ability to repair an already installed system. Selecting the "repair installed system" option on the Install or Update screen results in a reboot where the boot menu is: Welcome to openSuSE 10.3 (PPC)! Type "install" to start the YaST installer on this CD/DVD Type "slp" to start the YaST install via network Type "rescue" to start the rescue system on this CD/DVD To see this, these steps are required: 1, boot DVD and enter install at the boot prompt; 2, select keyboard layout; 3, click next on the media check screen; 4, accept the software license; 5, click other and leave the default "repair installed system" selected; 6, click next. On my G3 iMac, this results in an instant reboot. As a comparison, when booting the 10.3 DVD (i386, presumably the same happens with the x86_64 release) there is the choice to repair an already installed system given as a boot option. This presumable replaces the same option that was previously available as one of the other options when performing an installation or update (the other is boot installed system) as using that option causes the system to reboot. -- 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.
