wouldn't it be possible to make yast smarted and only provide the link when /boot is located on its own partition. Now many systems are configured with circular reference in the file system (/boot/boot -> .), for only a few real occasions...
How few is "few"? I have zero out of >30 systems lacking a separate boot partition. It's pretty common to have at least one separate partition to mount as /boot in multiboot, RAID and encrypted partition environments. To have what you ask, someone with the know how would have to decide it's important enough to spend the time to add the increased intelligence, after which maintenance could well be non-zero as well. I doubt many ordinary ordinary users would discover or understand the existence of that symlink, much less object to it. If you think it's worthy, ask for it in openFATE, and find out what kind of comments and votes appear. -- 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.
