Upon boot, systemd grumps about:
Just to be sure: there is no real problem other than error output ?
cannot add dependency for unit xdm.service, ignoring.
xdm isn't installed. I think it particular error will disappear with next maintenance update of systemd for 12.3
systemd-initctl.socket failed to listen on sockets: Too many levels of symbolic links
ls -la /dev/initctl ?
Failed to open /dev/autofs Failed to initialize automounter Unit proc-sys-fs-binfmt_misc.automount entered failed state
This is because : [ 23.246390] systemd[1]: Your kernel apparently lacks built-in autofs4 support. Might be a good idea to compile it in. We'll now try to work around this by loading the module...

This is strange, because systemd %pre script contains : getent group adm >/dev/null || groupadd -r adm I'm also seeing : [ 23.244359] systemd[1]: Failed to set up the root directory for shared mount propagation: Invalid argument Could you attach the FULL dmesg output.

I just cleaned up boot directory from all but the latest kernel, initrd and sysvers while booted in different OS from USB. I think kernel updates have messed up something. Before change/reboot I could see only a few modules in /lib/modules. I have noticed earlier that kernel updates can make system unbootable by creating invalid grub-menus in strange way. This is not the same problem, but tells me that Yast/Grub can't handle kernel-updates so well. After a new kernel-update today the problem reoccurred. This time I could boot without problems to desktop kernel but not to pae-kernel. It is possible that the problem in first place has to do with pae-kernel. I'm not sure, as I remember I tried to boot all kernels with same result. Anyhow I hope you get some helpful information from my report -- 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.

I think the issue initially reported are caused by rescue image generation which might be missing some stuff compared to a full system.
This should be reassigned to whoever is in charge of the rescue.
Sorry Frederic, but my issue was not limited to rescue system. The problem is modules not loaded. I think it is possible a mounting issue or something with library linking. -- 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.
