[Bug 250251] New: lilo.conf wrong after kernel update
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=250251 Summary: lilo.conf wrong after kernel update Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 1plus Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: felix@derklecks.de QAContact: qa@suse.de I just updated my System from 10.3-alpha1 to 10.3-alpha1plus but it wouldn't boot anymore. I am using openSUSE on a MacBook and therefore I have to use lilo. After the update I found the following in lilo.conf: "default = Kernel-2.6.20-6-default" But the label was "label = Kernel-2.6." Therefore I could not run lilo. Changing the default and the label to os103 helped and the system boots again now. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

It happened again updating to todays factory. That means kernel 2.6.20-6 to 2.6.20-8. So everytime one updates the kernel one has to update lilo.conf by hand in order to get the system to boot! -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=250251 ------- Comment #6 from felix@derklecks.de 2007-03-13 13:13 MST ------- I did a little research on this problem tonight. After the installation of a kernel /sbin/update-bootloader is called. This uses /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/Bootloader/Core/LILO.pm which does arround line 100:
$name =~ s/^linux-//i if length ($name)>11;
while (length($name)>11) { # cut off last word, break if no more found last unless $name =~ s/ \S*$//; }
