[Bug 481422] New: Popup "No checksum found" is impossible to understand

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=481422 Summary: Popup "No checksum found" is impossible to understand Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: mvancura(a)novell.com QAContact: jsrain(a)novell.com Found By: L3 The following popup appeared several times (approx. 6) during the opensuse 11.1 installation: once before the final "install button" and cca 5 times after it. "No checksum for file /mnt/var/tmp/var/tmp/TmpDir.bxEZG5/images/details-x86_64.xml was found in repository, but the list of checksum in this repository does not mention this file. Using the file may put the integrity of your system at risk. Use it anyway? Yes - No" This popup is 100% useless for the usual opensuse user because (at least): 1. it doesn't say which repository is this problem about 2. it doesn't say what the file in question really is - is that strange-looking path usual in the installation process? Or not? How can the user know? 3. it doesn't say what is the reason why it pops up 6th time. Especially if, for example, I used one repository only. (and expect there is one file with checksums for each repository, of course) 4. it doesn't say what each answer really means and will mean in the future. What if one clicks 'No'? The installation stops? Or the repository will be skipped? And, if yes, how YaST will continue if this was the only repository?... ...and similar for 'Yes' -- 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 481354] New: Factory doesn't boot in VirtualBox anymore

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=481354 Summary: Factory doesn't boot in VirtualBox anymore Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Blocker Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: poeml(a)novell.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- Every Factory image upgraded yesterday or the day before ceased to work for me, and the current images out there fail in the same way. They all stop with a black screen at the time where the kernel should be loading (or starting to be loaded maybe). VirtualBox aborts and says "aborted". It doesn't seem to be a quirk in VirtualBox, and not a bug in the handling of the snapshots I had accumulated (which was my first suspicion). It didn't change anything to start with a fresh harddisk without snapshots. Other images I have around (FreeBSD, Ubuntu, ArchLinux, 11.1) work. I played with VirtualBox config options, to no avail. Reinstalling the bootloader didn't help. I booted a rescue system, recreated the initial ramdisk, and noticed that mkinitrd includes about 87 modules into the initial ramdisk, which seems weird. (It gives an initrd 13 megs in size, uncompressed). I wondered why the initrd is just a simple gzipped cpio archive, I had expected something fancier, but maybe this is the way things are done today. I later was able to boot the system with an 11.1 kernel, with an initrd created with 11.1 mkinitrd. -- 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.

Then a checkbox where you can only choose i586. This same problem also prevents making a kiwi image. There you get this message: Target architecure of the current configuration (i586) does not match the system configuration (i386). Kiwi cannot create images for different architectures.
