Time consists of hour and minute (I ignore seconds here). I start computer with OS 12.2, during boot, system goes into emergency mode, because the SYSTEM time is correct, but the SYSTEM date is not (2001-01-02 15:25). So the bootloader sets it (system datetime) to correct date, and incorrect time (2012-09-14 00:00). And despit this cannot continue (fsck reports a problem with mounting, because it sees the datetimes from the future). Running fsck is not possible because the partition is mounted. So I can only reboot. I do this, and situation happens right again, the same story, the same date and time values. I don't what is the real reason of this problems, however the main point is, such emergency mode is too weak -- user should be able to start the system. I did it hard way, I changed /boot and / partitions fsck mode to none -- 0 -- in /etc/fstab and only this way I was able to boot it up. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Happens every time means the problem repeats itself in the infinitive loop. -- 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.
