https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=268455 Summary: Lack of request for 'syslinux' package during boot floppy creation in YAST Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: mbronczyk@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com I tried to create boot floppy through YAST->System->'Boot or Rescue Floppy'. Once I confirm which disk I want to create there is coming error: "An error occured while copying the image file to the floppy disk. Verify that a valid floppy is in the drive and that you have root permissions then try again." This message is a bit misleading, I have root permissions as I do it through YAST, floppy is also OK. After trying a few Then I tried to create the boot disk using mkbootdisk from DVD I got an info about missing 'syslinux' package. Would it be possible to give such an info, or even request installation of 'syslinux' package during boot floppy creation with YAST? -- 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.
