does it work if you boot with sysvinit ?
Hi, no, it's not working. I think the problem is in the kernel. -- 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.

Well I've found something that looks wrong, and looks like it would explain your symptoms, but it looks like it has been wrong for a long time so I'm surprised that previous releases worked...
What version of openSUSE did you live-update from?
Anyway, in /lib/mkinitrd/scripts/setup-dm.sh, just near the bottom, it says:
save_var root_dm
it should also say
save_var dm_modules
Could you please add that line, remove any other configuration changes you have made to work around the problem, run "mkinitrd" and see if you can then boot successfully.
(I can't set NEEDINFO to both of you, so I'll just choose one - I'd like to hear from both if possible).
Hi, this seems to work, the snapshot module is now included into initrd: linux:~ # chroot /mnt/ linux:/ # mkinitrd Kernel image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.4.6-2.10-default Initrd image: /boot/initrd-3.4.6-2.10-default Root device: /dev/system/root (mounted on / as ext4) modprobe: Module dm_snapshot_origin not found.
