hi there,
have a suse 9.0 test system running on an asus k8v-deluxe board. some old ide drive attached to the primary onboard (non-raid) via chipset.
in 9.0 the drive is /dev/hda, about 4 gigs in size.
now then i insert the 9.1 dvd, and select update installed system, yast2 gives me some mount errors, and complains that /etc/fstab displays /dev/hda although the drive is actually /dev/hde it says.
so whats wrong here? did some device numbering mechanisms changed with the new kernel 2.6? i cant make yast2 mount the drive no matter what i do.
thought 9.0->9.1 would be less hassle ;)
I had a similar problem when I went from a 2.4 kernel to a 2.6 kernel. My SATA and ATA drives were "swapped". On the grub boot command line I added: ide=reverse And the drives where in the same order as they were under the 2.4 kernel. Maybe this solves your problem as well ?
thanks, andy
