[Bug 389891] New: YaST2 Bootloader adds extra line to menu.lst
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=389891 Summary: YaST2 Bootloader adds extra line to menu.lst Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Beta 2 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jvc.potter@comcast.net QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=214867) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=214867) menu.lst After using YaST2 Bootloader to rename one of the entries in my Grub menu.lst, an extra line was added to those menu items that booted old versions of openSUSE on other disk partitions. For example: title openSUSE 11.0 - 2.6.25-rc9-17 (/dev/sdb2) root (hd1,1) configfile /boot/grub/menu.lst became after editting the title: title openSUSE 11.0 Beta 1 (/dev/sdb2) root (hd1,1) configfile /boot/grub/menu.lst configfile /boot/grub/menu.lst Even an entry that was not changed had the configfile doubled: title openSUSE 10.3 - 2.6.22.17-0.1 (/dev/sdb3) root (hd1,2) configfile /boot/grub/menu.lst changed to: title openSUSE 10.3 - 2.6.22.17-0.1 (/dev/sdb3) root (hd1,2) configfile /boot/grub/menu.lst configfile /boot/grub/menu.lst There was no change to the default and failsafe entries, nor to either of the Windows entries in menu.lst. The doubled line does not appear to affect the booting process so this is only a minor bug. -- 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.

On my Beta 2 system, I restored /boot/grub/menu.lst from menu.lst.old and then installed the new perl-Bootloader. (I didn't need --oldversion.) Then I made the same edits that I made before but this time the extra configfile line was not added to menu.lst: ###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: openSUSE 11.0 - 2.6.25-rc9-17 (/dev/sdb2)### title openSUSE 11.0 - Beta 1 (/dev/sdb2) root (hd1,1) configfile /boot/grub/menu.lst ###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: openSUSE 10.3 - 2.6.22.17-0.1 (/dev/sdb3)### title openSUSE 10.3 - 2.6.22.17-0.1 (/dev/sdb3) root (hd1,2) configfile /boot/grub/menu.lst -- 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 changed the default menu selection on OpenSUSE 11.0 (with KDE 4.0) and found that the extra configfile lines are still being added to menu.lst. I also found similar behavior with 11.0/KDE 3.5.9. I have not tried it with Gnome (nor Yast2-GTK) but, if the problem is perl-bootloader, I suspect that the results will be the same there. -- 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.
