[Bug 483211] New: some unknown error in yast2 after grub/bootloader installation - system seems only partly installed
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=483211 Summary: some unknown error in yast2 after grub/bootloader installation - system seems only partly installed Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: abittner@stud.fh-heilbronn.de QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=277866) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=277866) opensuse 11.2alpha0 factory netiso cleaninstall logs - messed up system User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009012700 SUSE/3.0.6-2.14 Firefox/3.0.6 i have ran opensuse 11.2 x86 from netinst iso image http://download.opensuse.org/factory/iso/openSUSE-Factory-NET-i586-Build0026... and tried a clean install 11.2. at the end of the whole install process there are some quick error messages and as im too tired by now i dont really recall the error, only something like some yast2 module ycp or something failed or crashed, bad parameters or something, some $ signs and variables and whatever, but i dont seem to be able to find it in the yast2log folder as the logdetails and volume is too high for me as a non-developer. an effect of this partly installed system is that i have no properly configured keyboard local (keyboard english only) and my user that i created and given a password during early install stage has also not been created, but the username (testuser) is being mentioned in /var/log/YaST2/macro_inst_initial.ycp: UI::ChangeWidget( `id (`username), `Value, "testuser" ); // YInputField "Username" ------------- nevertheless the user is not in /etc/passwd, and also didnt show up on the left side on the kde4 logon screen, so i had to manually log in as root as testuser didnt work (cos it never got created, as i later found out and i am reporting it here...) so something went wrong with parts of the factory install. will attach logs, and please feel free renaming this bug to something more meaningful once you discovered the real reason and where this bugreport fits best. thanks Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. -- 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.
