Please excuse my ignorance Martin but I fail to see a resolution for removable media recovery in bug 329702 for 10.3 users. 329702 deals with "yast2-repair module broken" and although booting to "Repair Installed System" is mentioned in conjunction, there is currently NO solution and 329702 has a
Yes, your problem is not solved but its impossible to solve it (its explained in bug 329702 why), because it is on the media which was already released (i.e. the CD you have burned and/or bought). We would need to release another set of medias, which is impossible :-( When a bug is FIXED it doesn't necessarily mean it will end-up in the current release (10.3 in this case). Even if it would be possible to fix this bug using an online update, it still doesn't mean that each FIXED bug is released as an online update. Some of the bugs will be fixed in the next version of openSUSE. This bug will be definitely fixed in the next openSUSE release (another solution how to fix this are in bug #329702). Broken yast2 repair is the root cause why the repair system doesn't work. If you will check bug #329702 carefully, you will see a lot of bugs marked as duplicate. Many of them are exactly like yours.
Status/Resolution of RESOLVED/FIXED. Sorry, the problem I reported is by far from being RESOLVED/FIXED. Show me a way or please reopen my bug. I consider your marking this bug a duplicate an easy way out for someone! Period!
Believe me its not! Thats the last thing I would do. I hope this comment makes sense and clarifies the situation. -- 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.
