Assuming that you install from a DVD to a USB-HDD, it enters, for example, root (hd1,1) for the boot entry which is wrong: While booting, the USB-HDD is the *first* disk! Consequently, it has to be root (hd0,1) instead. This fix is not easy to find for Joe User; this should probably mentioned in http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs:Most_Annoying_Bugs_11.0 Werner -- 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.
