I can go to tty2, kill the hanging grub process, after which yast2 notifies me of the abnormal termination of grub (which is ok), then proceeds on to reboot the system. On reboot, I boot the installation system with manual=1 so as to choose linuxrc's menu entry "Boot installed system" - since there is no bootloader on sda yet. In the so-started system, executing grub-install and/or grub --batch setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 --force-lba (hd0) (hd0,0) Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes Checking if "/boot/grub/xfs_stage1_5" exists... yes Running "embed /boot/grub/xfs_stage1_5 (hd0)"... 19 sectors are embedded. succeeded Running "install --force-lba --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+19 p (hd0,0)/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/menu.lst"... succeeded Done. grub> quit rpm -q grub => 0.97-188.1.1 -- 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.
