First shot (with gm) at 10.3
System: hp dl320/G4 with 4GB, no extra hw-installed, was running 10.2 Images were verified
Before i try anything special, i always do a default installation, nothing fancy selected. No-go this time!
After installation (reboot) it returns grub 21
Although i know that it's half of "life, universe and the rest" ;) It's a bit short.
Looking at http://www.uruk.org/orig-grub/errors.html it got some more details about grub-errors.
However, for 21 it says:
21 : "Unknown boot failure" This error is returned if the boot attempt did not succeed for reasons which are unknown.
Wry thing is, at that stage, its not possible to examine any logfiles as there is no other os on the system.
Obviously, during the grub-install, something is forgotten, or went wrong (will investigate further on monday). Would it be possible during grub-install to perform a test to test if it succesfully installed the bootloader.
And if it fails this test don't reboot, but fall into the cli?

Today i try a re-run Re-installation no good, then i remembered that there were ( i mean are) issues with the raid controllers of the HP-DL320 (not with other machines) For those also with a DL320-G4: Change in the bios, the raid-config several times from raid-0 <==> raid-1, attach the disks to it, and reinstall! Other "weak" issue of those machines is that sometimes, after booting, eth0 had the mac-address 00:00:00:00:00:00. After a reboot siruation is normal ** ** as soon as i find a apropiated definition of "normal" Machine is currently running as dom-0 server, creation of dom-u lamp went without any problem. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
