I'd also say the setup is weird, at best.
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7743 (just an example) I have to write to LJ why they publish info about such weird setups then.
Anyway, if you say some program does already care about it, it would help if you narrowed down _which one_ that is. Maybe you could remember some more detail than just 'I downgraded somehow'.
Yeah, I remembered, and for the third time I write it -- Yast/Software Management. And I also remember and I WROTE IT (so please do not offend me) that I selected update unconditional in Yast/SM because I was downgrading packages.
Also, if you take this seriously, it's not about just /boot but any fs mounted somewhere that is touched by a new rpm.
I do take it VERY seriously and you are right, /boot partition is this case, but in general (and I wrote it just a few minutes before) there is /etc/mtab to check what partitions are mounted. Before file/partition operation program should always check if the target is available. -- 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.
