The boot can not continue and later steps in the boot process crash with "Cannot execute <filename>" messages. This is due to the missing root filesystem (which is lost after the ISCSI connection is killed). I removed the 91-killiscsi.sh script from my init image and the system was able to boot perfectly (to finish installation and after installation has completed). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install OpenSuse 11.3 is a diskless fashion using an ISCSI disk. 2. SANBoot the installation using gPXE. 3. Wait for the crash to happen. Actual Results: Since the root partition can not be mounted the boot log can not be written in /var/log. However, below is an attempt to describe the output. Each attempt and executing runlevel scripts or executables results in the respons: Cannot execute <filename>. The last message in the line, before the boot hangs is pages of errors of "Cannot execute '/sbin/mingetty'" and errors that mingetty is respawning too quickly. Expected Results: The ISCSI root partition needs to stay available and mounted so that the boot process can read from it and continue with boot. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
