However the installed system fails to boot "waiting for /dev/disk/by-id/..." because the required module ide-generic is not passed to the installed kernel. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install 11.1 fails to recognise hard drives 2. Re-install 11.1 using the kernel parameter "insmod=ide-generic". 3. Initial installation successful. However initial reboot fails "waiting for /dev/disk/by-id/..." Actual Results: Booting installed system fails "waiting for /dev/disk/by-id/..." Expected Results: kernel parameters to the install should be passed to installed kernel. The kernel parameter "insmod ide-generic" should be passed to the installed system. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
