Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: zadeck@naturalbridge.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:7.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0.1 under opensuse 11.4 we were able to mount a raid file system during the system boot. under 12.4, this causes the booting to fail. The likely cause of this failure is some missing dependency in the startup order. The value of the sixth parameter of the fstab entry had been 2. But apparently this is no longer good enough. We can get around the problem by setting the mount parameters for the raid partition to be noauto and having the raid partition mounted after the boot finishes by using a cron job. This is a hack, but it works. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create a raid file system that you want to mount during boot time. 2. reboot your machine. 3. Actual Results: the system goes into single user mode because the file system cannot be properly fscked or mounted. mounting it from single user mode followed by init 5 works. -- 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.
