Not that I'm aware of. But I think this report is mostly about yast's repair tool?

I think that this message says why repair cannot boot this system: modprobe: FATAL: Could not open '/lib/modules/2.6.31-10-default/initrd/ext4.ko': No such file or directory There is missing module for ext4 in insts-sys. This is not repair problem.

I find that ext4 is not supported by repair (looks like communication error, because no one add this item to my features). Also I found that is problem if yast fallback to text_mode, then repair crash (founded during reproducing on M8). I take this bug, but due to big workload I am not sure if I can fix it until 11.2 release. -- 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.
