But if the disk was previously installed with freebsd (or, probably any *bsd flavor), the MBR is not able to boot. Solution is to go to repair interface and to install grub on the MBR (may be restoring a default MBR would make it also) at least the repair system should detect the faulty MBR, what it does not, so automatic repair don't works NB: all the disk was assigned to openSUSE, no remaining visible freeBSD component. partitions where 1 swap (default), 1 boot, 2 /, 4 unused -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
