[opensuse-factory] Grub-entries, partitioning differences between 10.2 > 10.3.
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I must say that it is very difficult to handle, because when an entry in grub does not work, because 10.2 reads different as 10.3, it is impossible to mount a 10.3 ext2 /boot partition, in the 10.2 partitioner. This way the working entry can not be copied, and placed into the grub. (and i do not know it from my head) So i have an unusable 10.3 sitting there.. does someone know a hack to mount this partition anyway? - -- Have a nice day, M9. Now, is the only time that exists.

Look in thread "kernel update brake the boot" by jdd from Tuesday. My second mail offers solution how to boot 10.3 from 10.2 boot loader. It works here. -- Regards, Rajko. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Title is for YaST and I find easier to use editor built in Midnight Commander, so in my case it doesn't matter if there is no YaST comment at all.
kernel (hd1,6)/vmlinuz-2.6.21-8-default root=/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_ST380021A_3HV4E5VM-part8 vga=0x31a
/dev/sda7 will do it.
[resume=/dev/sdb14]= wrong must be /dev/sdb7] splash=silent showopts initrd (hd1,6)/initrd-2.6.21-8-default
The resume=<partition> where is stored RAM snapshot. Usually it is swap partition, but in multiboot systems where swap is used for more of them it is not safe place for snapshot. ...
Now see if it is allright, thnx ;-)
