[opensuse] Yast/Grub2 keeps seeing a ghost
Hello all, I have recently set up a Thinkpad X220 Tablet. As I intended to use some features of the touchscreen, in a first time I have left the original Windows 7 - updated to Windows 10 - and installed 13.2 on the rest of the 320GB Disc. As openSUSE works very well (for what I want to do actually better than Windows), I have decides to replace the original hard disc with a 240GB SSD, on which I have copied the openSUSE install (with PartedMagic). I intended to then boot into the system with Rescatux and reinstall Grub. however this failed: I can't start Yast/Bootloader. i get the following error: Internal error. please report a bug report with logs. Details: Unknown udev device /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_HITACHI_HTS7232_E38.44563HDN1SN-part3 Caller: /usr/share/YAST2/lib/bootloader/device_mapping.rb:in 'to_kerneldevice' The "unknown udev device is evidently the original hard disc, part3 being the original root partition. The question is where is this stupid information saved and how can I get rid of it? It's the first time I get this error when moving partitions. I've solved the basic problem (installing grub)by running grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg grub2-install /dev/sda So the most important works, but I can't seem to be able to let Grub know that I changed the timeout - and anyway I'd like to understand why I can't let the Hitachi drive disappear from grub's memory.

You've probably copied the /boot as well. In the past, when replacing drives, I've had to boot up with a live of some sort, then mount the /boot partition, and spend a little time editing Grub files, and adjusting GUIDs of the drives and partitions. It was painstaking, but I just did it slowly and double checked my work and it all came up alright. Somewhere, I made notes but I can't put my hands on them right this moment. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Check /etc/default/grub_installdevice
