Hi,

I'm running a zyper dup of factory from a 11.0 chroot. I get this error:

Abort, retry, ignore? [A/r/i]: a



Which is false, /boot is mounted.


A retry fails:

NOT_nimrodel:/ # nice zypper -n dup -l
zypper: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_signals-mt.so:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
NOT_nimrodel:/ # rpm -i --force
/mnt/dvd/suse/i586/boost-1.34.1-45.37.i586.rpm
NOT_nimrodel:/ #

and now I can retry zypper dup, which then fails on the kernel install
as above.

This is not kernel problem, it is problem during upgrade bootloader
configuration. This is check which compare /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab (in
next release it is changed to /proc/mounts ) so if you send here your
/etc/fstab and mtab I can say you what is wrong.
