The log offered by Yast2 says: === System Checking === Checking for /usr/bin/chroot...Passed Checking for chroot directory /mnt...Passed Trying to chroot...Failed It then reports "An error occurred during initrd creation" "Error occured while installing GRUB" Looking at the system using virtual console 2, /dev/sda7, the partition selected for the test installation, was mounted on /mnt and contained the usual directories. /mnt/boot was completely empty. Exactly the same scenario occurred on two quite different x86 machines: a fairly conventional pentium, and a ThinkPad laptop. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
