[A/w/i]: [...] The the missing filesystem driver is included into initrd later when installing the kernel-default package. Tu avoid the error messages I can think of two solutions: 1. Include the reiserfs module ( and other filesystems, that are supported as root filesystem) in the Kernel-base package. 2. Make mkinitrd aware of that special case so that it doesn't fail. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
