Moving /boot files among partitions impacts the bootloader. Without reconfiguring the bootloader before rebooting, I wouldn't expect further booting without a repair boot first. :-p
In openSUSE running mkinitrd implicitly updates bootloader
Adding/removing stanzas for kernel installations and removals I'm fully aware of.
and its configuration.
Automagic changes to (x,y) components of Grub entries after manually moving /boot content to another partition is news to me, as are installations of Grub on the booting partition rather than the MBR.
Yes, you are right, it is more complicated. If "boot device" (as defined by YaST2 bootloader configuration) is not changed, this is likely enough (is is definitely enough for grub2). If /boot was also "boot device", it needs to be changed. For grub legacy I am not sure. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
