This happened after update openSUSE from 11.4 to 12.1 final Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.1 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 12.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: f.leerink@xs4all.nl QAContact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:11.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/11.0 Hello, I have a system with 2 hard disks resp /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. Dev/sda contained the windows partitions, while dev/sdb contained the openSUSE 11.4 partitions, respectively: /dev/sda1 ntfs boot /dev/sda2 extended /dev/sda5 ntfs backup /dev/sda6 fat32 recovery and /dev/sdb1 linux swap /dev/sdb2 ext4 / /dev/sdb3 ext4 /home /dev/sdb4 extended /dev/sdb5 ext4 /data I inserted the openSUSE 12.1 final DVD and started the update. I accepted the language and keybord proposal, selected update existing system and acceepted /dev/sdb2 as the partition to update (/ ). The update process started and worked as expected until the reboot. The system rebooted while the DVD was still in the DVD reader. The system started from the DVD but than via the first option "boot from harddisk" At that moment the grub errror occured. The screen displayed the following: Kernal (hd0,1) /boot/vmlinuz-3.1.0-1.2-desktop root=/dev/sdb2 resume =/dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST3300831AS_4NF17XSA-part1 splash=silent quiet nomodeset Error 17 Cannot mount selected partition Both openSUSE 12.1 boot options have the same problem and also booting directly from harddisk with the DVD removed resulted in the same problem What can I do to correct the situation Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: The system generated the Error 17 Cannot mount selected partition Expected Results: Boot correctly in the openSUSE 12.1 system -- 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.
