I configured kdump with 'yast kdump'. Next time I tried to boot the system,
grub dropped in to a shell prompt instead of booting. I think there was a grub
error message displayed, but the screen was cleared too quickly for me to read
what it was. Maybe the grub configuration file was malformatted.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.'yast2 kdump' and configure a 128MB crash kernel
2.reboot the system to bring the crash kernel online
3.observe the failure to boot, and the grub shell prompt
Actual Results:  
I got a grub shell prompt

Expected Results:  
The system should have booted with the crash kernel in place

I was running with Tumbleweed 2015-05-21.
