I have tried to upgrade to 13.1. After an install I got a pure Grub prompt. I found an old 11.4 LiveDVD and tried to repair and re-install grub, unsuccessfully. Then installed grub2 and os-prober packages via chroot, executed grub2-install. The grub still did not boot asking for "directory". I gave an ad-hoc name and it asked for a file modinfo.sh. Via google I found it to be in grub2-i386-pc package. I installed it via chroot. The system booted up, first and last time. The video was working only in 2D mode. I made the following changes: removed package grub (because there was already grub2), removed nvidia g02 drivers (because they anyway do not support my card), changed the grub2 wait time from 10 to 2 seconds via yast, made zypper up. The internet connection disappeared somewhat 5 minutes from boot and could not be restored. I decided to reboot. The system did not boot any more. After the message about successful mounting of the root file system the booting stopped. The last messages were cut off so I could not guess the cause. I booted from the live DVD and in chroot tried to reverse the last changes. Re-installed grub, the g02 drivers, restored the grub settings from the file grub.old. This did not help. Then I re-installed grub2 several times, changed the kernel to different versions - from 3.11 to 3.7 and 3.4, variants from desktop to default and vanilla. No effect. So I googled the kernel boot options so to chnge the video mode at boot. So I set up the low-res text mode in grub2 so that the messages were not cut. The message was "Error loading shared libraries libwrap.so.0. Not synchronized. Attempted to kill init. Kernel panic". I found that libwrap.so.0 file is in the package tcpd. I re-installed this package, but wihout effect. I also tred to change the mount options of the root filesystem in fstab (the root file system is ext4), but again this did not help. So I decided to roll back. The chroot environment could not resolve host names so I added the Google DNS 8.8.8.8 to the config file. Then I started to update tho the previous release. In the course of update some packages were hanging on scripts so I had to interrupt zypper. After one such interrupt zypper refused to start again due to incorrect glib version. So I downloaded libzypp and zypper via wget and installed with rpm -i --force. After that the installation completed. I was again met with grub prompt, but made grub2-install and the system booted in text mode. I installed the nvidia drivers and it booted successfully. So this is the system I use currently. I think all these operations are not well suitable to an average user. I also have no idea on how to make 13.1 to work. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
