[Bug 341226] New: Update crashed boot up process
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=341226 Summary: Update crashed boot up process Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.2 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Update Problems AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: marc@marcchamberlin.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Customer Sometime around 11/11/07 I got a set of updates through the Yast Online update process. Upon reboot I discovered I had duplicate entries in the GRUB menu for selecting my SuSE version to boot up. Also the ZenWorks version had again appeared at the top of this list much to my annoyance. (I dont use Zenworks, have no idea what it is and regard it as a nuisance which does nothing but slow down the update process because of some need to synchronize everything with Zenworks, FYI I am a simple single user, have no need for fancy corporate technologies) Anywise when I selected one of the entries for my SuSE version the boot process got as far as initializing the Synaptics touch pad on my laptop and hung. on reboot I selected the other entry for my SuSE version (both were identical as far as the labels are concerned) and that works. I have no idea what the actual difference was but believe me I headed directly to Yast and deleted both entries (ZenWorks and this bogus entry) as fast as I could! PLEASE be more careful in the future and test these updates before releasing them, this gives SuSE users a VERY POOR user experience! I don't like having new technologies such as Zenworks jammed down my throat either, that appears to be something useful in corporations, not for small users and small businesses. -- 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.
