it is pretty lengthy so I will post the link to the thread and give a synopsis. On my third `sudo zypper dup` my system stopped working completely on reboot, upon further investigation it turns out `dracut` is not finding some important files it needs to create the initrd file for the latest kernel. I

Posting the important parts here to avoid reading the whole forum post:

With LOADER_TYPE="grub2-efi" (no sdbootutil/grub-bls around) the %post kernel scriptlet is failing, so your system seems to be broken somehow. IIUC you already did a rollback to an old snapshot, could try to zypper ref & dup from there, and then (if it keeps failing) run manually `dracut -f --debug` as root and attach the output here?

ran the update on another system (this one in legacy boot mode) and the update went fine. Not sure if that means anything.

I'd say no, it works for both legacy and UEFI. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
