http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=993401 Bug ID: 993401 Summary: grub2-install for EFI installs an EFI entry that is not bootable Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 42.1 Hardware: aarch64 OS: openSUSE 42.1 Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: Bootloader Assignee: jsrain(a)suse.com Reporter: alan(a)softiron.co.uk QA Contact: jsrain(a)suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- Running grub2-install does not yield a bootable entry in EFI's boot menu. On Leap and Tumbleweed, this means booting relies instead on the startup.nsh in the EFI partition. This occurs on Aarch64 with both AMD/AMI firmware and Tianocore/edk2/OpenPlatformPkg firmware. Steps to reproduce: 1. Install Leap 42.1 from the OEM image 2. Restart and boot the system 2a. Observe that the startup.nsh (in the EFI partition) is used to boot the system. 3. Reboot again, but During boot-up, enter the EFI menu. 3a. Observe that in the boot manager in the EFI menus, there is no entry for Leap. 4. Restart the system or select the UEFI shell option, booting from startup.nsh 5. From the command prompt in Leap, run: grub2-install /dev/sda 6. Reboot the system 7. During start-up enter the EFI menu. 7a. Observe that in the EFI menu there is an entry called opensuse-leap42.1-arm-jeos-devel-efi, or something like it. 8. Select the opensuse-leap* boot menu item and try to boot it. 9. Observe that it does not boot, and returns to the boot menu. 10. Select the UEFI Shell option, and observe that it will boot using startup.nsh. 11. From the Linux command prompt, run "efibootmgr -v" 11a. Observe that the entry for opensuse-leap* is truncated :( 11b. Note the same can be observed by running "dumpstore" from the EFI environment. Note: The same thing happens if the bootloader is re-installed using "yast2 bootloader". Note that this is broken in Leap, but works fine in SLES, probably because the path and OS name for SLES is so much shorter. Interestingly, if I try to add my own entry with the proper path: efibootmgr -c -d /dev/sda -p 1 --loader "EFI\\opensuse-leap42.1-arm-jeos-devel-efi\\grubarm64.efi" -L Test_Entry_By_Alan and then inspect it with: efibootmgr -v I see my entry is truncated too :( Boot0007* Test_Entry_By_Alan HD(1,800,64004,cb3a713f-f051-4c9c-b643-b9e1358f6c2d)File(EFI\opensuse-leap42.1-arm-jeos-devel-ef) In summary, grub2-install and/or efibootmgr is simply putting a boot entry into NVRAM that is truncated and not valid. Thanks! Alan. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 1079439] New: New area for ARCES Inter-Department Research Center Bologna

http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1079439 Bug ID: 1079439 Summary: New area for ARCES Inter-Department Research Center Bologna Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE.org Version: unspecified Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: OBS Request Assignee: mrueckert(a)suse.com Reporter: marco.giusti(a)posteo.de QA Contact: adrian(a)suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- We first reached OBS at ARCES[1] after the demand of porting our application, Virtualbricks[2], to SLE 12. Even without any experience with SUSE or RPM, OBS allowed us to easily create the needed packages and to deliver the software to our partners. Convinced of the benefits of OBS we want to exploit it more. Following the advice from adrianS_ in #opensuse-buildservice here I ask for a dedicated space that could be recognized as connected to us, ideally with arces.unibo.it in the name. Here[3] you can see the results of my attempts made with my account. For a confirmation of the officiality* of my request you can contact Carlo Caini[4], Associate Professor at ARCES, who directed the development of Virtualbricks the last years. A few words about Virtualbricks and how it is exploited by ARCES. Virtualbricks is a frontend for the management of Qemu Virtual Machines (VMs) and VDE virtualized network devices (switches, channel emulators, etc.). Although it can be used to manage isolated VMs, its peculiar aim is to design and manage testbeds consisting of many VMs interconnected by VDE elements. In other words, it allows to extend the concept of VM to testbeds, which thanks to Virtualbricks can become entirely software-defined. Among the wide variety of possible applications, we have academic research and teaching on computer networks. In particular, we would like to use this space as main hub to distribute our software to the students of the course Protocols and Architectures for Space Networks, master degrees in TLC and Computer Engineering of the University of Bologna, as well as to our research partners, including some European space agencies (ESA, DLR). Thank you for taking this request in account. Marco * Although this request received the consensus of the Director of ARCES, this space will not be recognized as *official* by the University of Bologna i.e. it will not receive any direct support from University of Bologna outside our own effort to maintain it.

[Bug 958483] New: 3rd party application UI is not behaving as required

http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=958483 Bug ID: 958483 Summary: 3rd party application UI is not behaving as required Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: 2015* Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 Assignee: yast2-maintainers(a)suse.de Reporter: tchvatal(a)suse.com QA Contact: jsrain(a)suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- When using 3rd party module (like Virtualization) that tries to install additional packages it at this moment works like this when you are in X environment: For each package there is pop-up showing progress and then this pop-up is closed. This causes severe issue if user runs compoziting enabled environment. Imagine it like disco-bulb turning on and off as only on-top window is supposed to be rendered right and all the underlying windows are greyed out. More apps you install the more "funky" blinking you get. Prefferable solution would be to somehow include the yast2 sw_single interface that has the bottom progressbar and prints the installed packages. Added value would be mostly for openSUSE, where the default DE's have enabled compositing, but also for SLE case it would get at minimal prettier and at best more understandable about what is happening for the installed packages. For openSUSE it is quite commonly reported issue as I closed 3-4 during the bugzilla cleanup mentioning this problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 966042] New: yast command-line usage emits "unable to close filehandle properly" warning at exit

http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=966042 Bug ID: 966042 Summary: yast command-line usage emits "unable to close filehandle properly" warning at exit Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: 2015* Hardware: x86-64 OS: SUSE Other Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 Assignee: yast2-maintainers(a)suse.de Reporter: bk(a)ancilla.ca QA Contact: jsrain(a)suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- Specifically, it says: Warning: unable to close filehandle properly: Bad file descriptor, <STDIN> line 21 during global destruction (#1) (S io) An error occurred when Perl implicitly closed a filehandle. This usually indicates your file system ran out of disk space. This happens with (as far as I can tell, I haven't tested exhaustively) all command-line yast invokations that involve a module. So, e.g., "yast users help" or "yast sysconfig help" will produce this message. "yast help" on its own, however, won't. It does not appear to affect yast's exit code, or it's ability to do its job; if I run "yast sysconfig set LOADER_TYPE=none", it does the right thing and then produces that message while exiting. Despite the hint that it may be space-related, this happens on multiple computers, all of them with plenty of space available on all filesystems. These systems are all running recent (~2 weeks) versions of Tumbleweed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
