Its one of these BIOS-disk-order vs. Kernel-disk-order problems.

The system has SATA and IDE controller, both with a disk attached. The kernel sees the IDE disk first (/dev/sda), SATA second (/dev/sdb). However, the SATA drive is the boot drive so to grub hd(0,0) is the right value.

This should not be problem, as we use udev links. Problem is that in some time hd0,0 is written instead of correct entry. I must dig logs to find where this happen (sometime between 06.03 and 28.3 - first refresh which doesn't change anything read (hd0,0)) -- 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.

Indeed. Linux is using by-id links and doesn't care about disk order. But grub has huge problems.

...

Problem is that in some time hd0,0 is written instead of correct entry.

In my case, hd(0,0) is the right entry since hd(0,0) == first disk in BIOS boot order. The bug is that grubs menu.lst contained hd(1,0) since the 'boot' disk shows up as sdb in Linux Actually, there are two bugs since menu.lst still contained the boot entries for the previous (Milestone 2) kernel ! -- 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.

Boot order is stored in /boot/grub/device.map so if you change boot order in BIOS you must regenerate whole boot configuration. Otherwise yast2-bootloader should store correct order and I use this order.

Boot order is stored in /boot/grub/device.map

Do you need this file for debugging ?

...

so if you change boot order in BIOS

I didn't change anything in the BIOS. The system booted fine with M2.

...

It is not two bugs just two effects of one bug :)

I see two bugs here 1. Wrong disk choosen (hd(1,0)) 2. Invalid boot entry (pointing to old kernel image) -- 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.

This is /var/log/YaST2 of the system with wrong partition in the bootloader

Hi, in this case it looks like udev is totally broken after kernel update and it cause problem with partition because it cannot translate partition information. Please provide output of these script to ensure if problem happen only after kernel update or it is still present: udevadm info -q all -n /dev/dm-0 udevadm info -q all -n /dev/sda2 thanks Kay - if you know about similar problem in current factory please add note. -- 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.

As a result, during the upgrade, some dynamic information will no longer be available when the new udev binaries are installed along with the old database. The values need to be re-evaluated, by rebooting the system, or "udevadm trigger" needs to be run for the devices in question. I don't know how to solve this from the udev side, running "udevadm trigger" when updating udev is known to cause problems in some cases. It should not in theory, but especially things like device-mapper may break their udev setup, if we emit additional events. I guess, we need to make sure, that a bootloader update happens before the udev update, if the bootloader depends on non-core/non-kernel properties from the udev database. -- 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.

device.map reflect order of booting for x86 based machines. BIOS code 0x80 is for first device to boot etc...it is important mainly when you write boot code to MBR.

...

...
I also cannot find any valid menu.lst each one which I see in logs has broken hd(0,0) so is menu.lst fixed before upgrade? I manually fix menu.lst because I cannot boot otherwise.

Interesting is that I cannot find correct one logs. Could you specify date when you update ( There is quite a lot of message, so time could help me to better identify it).

...

...
(perl-Bootloader during update/upgrade doesn't 'fix' menu, it just try to change in same way as it works before)

How does perl-Bootloader determine what to use as 'root' device ?

When you update the root device is device which is mounted under /boot (or / if /boot is not separated). So it try to find if there is some device which has as root device which is mounted as /boot. If it is not found then add default arguments and add it. Of course if it is broken before update it doesn't remove old entries as It think that it is for another system. -- 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.

Why does bootloader try to newly guess grubs root() device during upgrade ? It should just leave it alone !

Because some users have more then one image section with different roots, so set root to /boot is done always as part of workflow ( it is part of pbl abstraction for another bootloader, you always set root by unix device and for grub it is translated to grub device) -- 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.

It seems some BIOS are disposed to change boot priority/BIOS disk order at the slightest provocation that may or may not come from actually entering BIOS setup or changing anything in BIOS setup, but might come from any transient or worse problem with BIOS HD0 during POST, or from HD replacement.

Yes, that sounds like a valid explanation, and rpm -qi confirms that udev was installed earlier than the kernel. Maybe I'm thinking too simple, but shouldn't this be solvable be releasing an udev update that requries kernel >= $11.3_original_kernel to give the solver a hint about the installation order?

Background: the issue was caused by udevd loosing part of its database after an update. If the udev update happened before the kernel update, updating the bootloader config may fail. Several band-aids had been added to perl-Bootloader to work around this. 12.3 solves this by not using udev in perl-Bootloader anymore. -- 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.

( Remarkable: first report for this bug was from 28.03.2010, yesterday was the 3 anniversary) Starting Situation: Hardware: Acer Aspire V3-771G Intel Core I7-3630M (64Bit) 32GB RAM HDD0 : Crucial Micron RealSSD C400 256GB (MTFDDAK256MAM) HDD1 : Toshiba MQ01ABD100 (1TB) On HDD0: a preinstalled Windows 8 on HDD0 on HDD1: formated by Windows 8 This was the original situation. I tried to install opensuse *12.2* on HDD1 by shortening the Windows-HDD1-partition and creating new EXT4-partitions and a swap partition. This installation failed. (known situation: see me original bug report 795838) After deleting Windows 8 and formating the hdds, the installation of suse 12.2 failed again ( same as 12.3, it tried it at this moment). (Because Installation F3->"Text mode" is not text mode, I can not tell you the reason.) I tried again with F5->save settings, than Installation on opensuse 12.2 works. After having installed opensuse 12.2 on hdd0 and parts of hdd1, I tried to install opensuse 12.3 on the free parts of hdd1 and got the same results as for the installation of 12.2. Conclusions: - After reading the discussion to this bug, I think, bugzilla should have an additional Status "annoyed by discussions" because "Resolved" normally means something different. - If it is not possible to repair bugs in a boot process in the time over 3 years, normally it would be a good reason to think about the general design. - Since 1996, I used Suse as 2. operation system behind Windows on different PCs. The installation has been easy ( at least since V 4.4.1) Today, one needs at least experience or better: insider knowledge to handle this. Good for winning new linux users ? - Maybe, there are reasons to use disk-by-id for fixed hdds, but until yet,I found none. For industrial use it's a curse. -- 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.

I reported the bug 795838 and it has been regarded as equal to this one. But coming to the point. After a lot of different tries to install 12.2 or 12,3 I found, that the problems result from an other problem: parted reports, that it cannot read /dev/sda. This is the SSD Crucial Micron RealSSD C400 256GB (MTFDDAK256MAM). In Bios, I've changed to hdd1 ( /dev/sdb ) as the booting device and now I am booting from this hd. in /boot/grub2/device.map the Toshiba-(classical hd) is regarded as (hd0) while The SSD is regardes as (hd1). Again: It seems to be a parted-problem associated with the micron SSD. If you still need the requested log files I will send it to you, but I believe, it is not necessary here. -- 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.
