To facilitate external repositories on system update from DVD I entered the string ZYPP_ARIA2C=0 on bootprompt and the consequence was that this string was put into the files /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/sysconfig/bootloader for the new kernel. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot from DVD contains 11.2 2. select "install" 3. select "update" 4. enter ZYPP_ARIA2C=0 on boot prompt 5. make the update 6. check boot prompt for new kernel when booting the new system 11.2 Actual Results: String must be deleted by hand. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If added arguments are handled by linuxrc it filter them out and they are not added to bootloader configuration. It means the bug is in linuxrc if it is argument handled by linuxrc or if not I am sorry. yast2-bootloader only adds your additional arguments added during installation. Steffen could you look at it please? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I see that the situation is not ideal but IMO linuxrc can't filter out all options that are only useful during install and not useful later on. If someone needs special options during install and not in the installed system, how should linuxrc know that? I think the user needs to remove them herself if that is the case. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
