Could this have affected the installation of the initrd image and thus missing the ext4 module in that? Other then that all I can say is that I use the factory version and have done no modifications to the kernel setup. But when booting with an affected kernel the ext4 module was missing from the initrd image and so preventing booting as "/" is formated using ext4. -- 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.

Ok, could you attach output of zcat /boot/initrd-of_affected_version|cpio -t|grep ext ? I don't think this is a kernel problem. Rather a module-init-tools (basesystem component) one. -- 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.
