           Summary: /etc/initscript tries to set the soft and hard limits
                    in wrong order
    Classification: openSUSE
           Product: openSUSE 11.2
           Version: Final
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Basesystem

In /etc/initscript Line 94 sets the soft limits and Line 95 the hard limits -
which is in wrong order.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
It is an example consequence of the actual problem:
1. Set e.g. soft file descriptor limit to 5000.
2. Reboot system.

Actual Results:  
The system displays an error message for /etc/initscript Line 94 stating that
the parameter is invalid.

Expected Results:  
Set soft file descriptor limit to 5000.

The actual problem is that the soft limit (5000) is tried to be set before the
hard limit (8192) so it fails.

Resolution is easy: simply change the order of lines 94 and 95: set the hard
limits first then the soft limits, and suddenly the error message disappears.
