Hi Quentin, Have a look on this bug https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449823 Is it your case? Best regards, Rasto -----Original Message----- From: Quentin Jackson [mailto:Quentin.Jackson@exclamation.co.nz] Sent: Friday, November 28, 2008 7:57 AM To: opensuse-factory@opensuse.org Subject: Re: [opensuse-factory] XFS Boot Problem On Fri, 2008-11-28 at 18:55 +1300, Quentin Jackson wrote:

Anyone know why RC1 suddenly says it won't boot if I make /boot and XFS partition? I've been running XFS as a /boot partition since 10.3 with no problems and never noticed this message before. I'm installing now and don't know if it will or won't work but will let everyone know.

I presume there is a change in code that has meant this message now presents itself?

Thanks,

Well, it does boot in any case, so the error is at least in part incorrect, maybe we should change it to 'may' not boot instead of will not boot.

File us a bugreport, we can change the text for openSUSE 11.2 (in order not to break all translations for 11.1).
