https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=218029 ------- Comment #3 from olh@novell.com 2006-11-06 01:31 MST ------- there are several issues here. this castrated powerbook has some sort of rEFIt installed. This piece of software can apparently write an msdos partition table signature on the available EFI disk label. While doing this, the existing ext3 partition gets msdos partition type 0xc (I think), instead of 0x83. grub itself has not filesystem type detection. If it sees the 0xc partition type, it tries to mount it as FAT, which fails. Correcting the partition type from 0xc to 0x83 allowed grub to read detect the ext3 filesystem on the partition. if parted is instructed to write something to the EFI disk label (like 'parted $driver set 4 boot on'), it will remove the msdos partition table signature. lilo and grub appearently require the msdos partition signature. and finally, the native boot method on this system is appearently EFI. So yast must not try to dump that bootloader stuff from last century on the disk, instead it probably should install something like elilo. too bad, the installed refit is appearently unable to boot the bzImage from kernel-default. Enabling CONFIG_EFI and related kernel config options did not fix it. -- 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.
