We're running a new installation, not an update. Seems strange that it installs both grub (0.97) and grub2 (2.00) ??? -- 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.

Yes, LVM.

Could you please help to check your ps output has LVM2_member like this one ??

http://bugzillafiles.novell.org/attachment.cgi?id=520328

Not quite the same. Here's the output from "ps ax | grep LVM": 6359 tty1 D+ 0:00 mount -o ro -t LVM2_member /dev/sda2 /var/lib/os-prober/mount 6361 ? S 0:01 /etc/nothing -q -- LVM2_member

From the correspondence on bnc#798604 it would appear that we have indeed been hit by this bug.
