https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=333753 Summary: Installation and upgrade fail on nvidia RAID0+1 Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: oen(a)dsl.pipex.com QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: --- When installing or upgrading 10.3 on an nvraid RAID0+1 system the mkinitrd script fails. The following messages appear: ------------ An error occurred during initrd creation. Kernel image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22.5-31-default Initrd image: /boot/initrd-2.6.22.5-31-default Root device: /dev/mapper/nvidia_acdaaaad_part8 (mounted on / as ext3) Device dm-26 not handled. (please note: the number can vary) Script /lib/mkinitrd/setup/72-block.sh failed. Bootloader::Library::SetLoaderType: Initialization for unknown bootloader. Bootloader::Core::ListFiles: Running generic function, it should never be called. Bootloader::Core::ParseLines: Running generic function, it should never be called. ------------ The installation has then to be broken off. When rebooting, GRUB ends up in an Error 15. The old bootloader is still there. The system reverts to a command line version of GRUB from where Windows XP x64 can be booted. Log files are not available, as the 10.3 system is not accesssible at all. In case there is a possibility to boot into 10.3 someone please tell me how; I'll be happy to supply logfiles then. The error can not be caused by faulty installation media as it occurs using the DVD, the KDE CD, and the internet install. All of them fail in exactly the same way - but work fine on another system running on nvidia RAID1. The error is also specifically 10.3 because 10.2 can be re-installed without any problem on the RAID0+1 system. Finally, it turns out I'm not the only one to encounter this problem. David Sauve reports the same error here: http://www.mail-archive.com/opensuse@opensuse.org/msg47438.html David and I have been in contact and established that the systems on which 10.3 fails to install are both running nvraid RAID0+1. The systems are not completely identical: the RAID0+1 arrays are different in size, and my system is dual-boot where DS's system is not. In case any more information is needed, please let me know; good luck :-) -- 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.

I would click about however that would fail. and it would continue to attempt until dns would time out.

[Bug 345523] New: Wrong time of root (/) filesystem after boot

Whe hardware clock is set to local time (in this case MEZ/CET, = UTC + 1h) : time of / filesystem (ls -ld --full-time /) is set to local time + difference to UTC (in this case local time + 1h = UTC + 2h) I think this is wrong. The time of / should be the local time of boot time. The file /boot/grub/default has the right time. -- 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.

[Bug 259698] New: [DSL] patch /etc/ppp/if-up to support ip of access gateway not in local lan

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=259698 Summary: [DSL] patch /etc/ppp/if-up to support ip of access gateway not in local lan Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: fl(a)fl.priv.at QAContact: qa(a)suse.de When one sets up a PPTP DSL connection to an access gateway which does not reside in the local LAN but behind some gateway in the local LAN then one needs to patch /etc/ppp/if-up to add a route via that gateway to the access gateway. Otherwise pppd sets the route to the access gateway through the tunnel which breaks horribly. Already submitted after SuSE 9.2 cam out but has never been locked at as it seems.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=337404 Summary: BuildService is lacking sanity checks Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jengelh(a)gmx.de QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer Take for example /repositories/network:/telephony/openSUSE_Factory/*/iaxmodem*.rpm The problem is that there is no way to find out who created these packages (which do have a lot of bugs). I wrote to the people listed in the Packager: and Vendor: tags, but neither of them said they were responsible for the SUSE RPM package. This is really bad! (1) The OBS should *NOT* allow Vendor: or Packager: tags to be set from specfiles, only from ~/.rpmmacros or whatever OBS uses. (2) And it should *force* the users OBS name/email into the package, because I can imagine that no one at Novell is reponsible for that package either.
