Options fX, delay, append, message, and root are similarly invalid. These options must be of the form option=value, otherwise elilo aborts. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install in UEFI environment with ELILO as the chosen boot loader. 2. Reboot the system. ELILO emits errors and aborts. 3. Expected Results: ELILO should boot openSUSE 12.1 -- 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.
