The LVM system failed to boot; I eventually tracked that the fact that /boot/grub/menu.lst was listing (hd0) where it should have listed (hd0,0). Note that the menu.lst was correct when I was running 11.4. After I corrected the problem, I upgraded 12.1 to 12.2. To my chagrin, the problem reappeared. At least this time I expected it so I didn't waste hours tracking the bug down. (And it's a good thing I'm submitting this report because I just did an online update and it screwed up AGAIN!) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create an LVM-based 12.1 system with /boot on /dev/sda1 and root on an LVM 2. Make sure it uses /boot/grub/menu.lst, not /boot/grub2/grub.cfg 3. Upgrade to 12.2 (or do any YAST-based update that replaces the kernel) Actual Results: Look at menu.lst and verify that it wants to boot from (hd0) Expected Results: Since menu.lst was (hd0,0) before, it should be that way afterwards. -- 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.
