SUSE 9.0 boostrap: Trying to move old root to /initrd ... failed
I have been getting this error for sometime now on one machine, and I can not find any documentation to explain what is happening here. Can anyone explain this error message and should I be concerned about it? If so, is there a fix? Thanks, ...Paul -- Managing good programmers/engineers is tantamount to herding cats...

Did you add or remove a partition? -- Such a foolish notion, that war is called devotion, when the greatest warriors are the ones who stand for peace.

No, I created a new install from scratch and left the partitions sized as follows: hdc1 /boot 1.0 GB (ext3) hdc2 swap 1.5 GB (swap) hdc3 / 16.5 GB (reiser) hdc4 /srv 18.3 GB (reiser) hdb1 /home 11.1 GB (reiser) hdb2 /data 45.5 GB (reiser) The message has shown up since I created the system. I have done one update and picked up the new kernel and installed it via Yast.

Forget this message, at boot Linux attemps to save the ramdisk files to a folder called /initrd. If the folder doesn't exist you get this message. If you are worried with that create this folder and you won't get it. Michel
If so, is there a fix?
