We received additional reports of breakage if you have additionaly the UserMode Linux Kernel package "kernel-um" installed.

Just went into the same trap and had to revive my system by calling mkinitrd from the rescue system. But the question is: Why is the UserMode Linux package installed on my system? I never installed it separately and didn't even know that it is on my machine since today .
kernel-um is part of the "Kernel Development" Package Selection in YAST, which you probably selected during installation. Ciao, Marcus
