After the system is installed *whereever*, if I use the grub on the newly installed system to make a usb hard drive bootable, it does not work. There is no error from grub when it sets up the disk grub> root (hd2,0) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 grub> setup (hd2) Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes Checking if "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd2)"... 15 sectors are embedded. succeeded Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd2) (hd2)1+15 p (hd2,0)/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/menu.lst"... succeeded Done. upon booting the usb disk, you get "GRUB loading, please wait..." -- 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.

All YaST does is a heuristics. Especially USB set-ups bring more possibilities regarding what's correct setup and it will depend also on your BIOS settings. There is nothing YaST can do; you need to check the disks order yourself. Unfortunately, the disks order setting is broken in 11.0, but it will be fixed with 11.1 (this is already tracked in bzilla). There is nothing we can do about this particular problem except providing more warnings and hints in the installation proposal, which we plan to do for 11.1. -- 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.
