I do not see char-major-6-0, but otherwise similar symptoms. Scrrenshot with list of processes attached. Where can I read more about /etc/nothing? -- 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.

"blkid" returns type of partition "LVM2_member", which os-prober does not understand and tries to mount using "LVM2_member" as filesystem type which in turn results in kernel trying to autoload this module. /usr/lib/os-prober/50mounted-tests has to ignore partition of type "LVM2_member". -- 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.

It came alive accidentally as a result of a code cleanup. I've removed all traces of it now. Please test again with linuxrc 4.1.4. -- 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.
