http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=906716 Bug ID: 906716 Summary: dracut breaks boot on missing swap volume Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: 13.2 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: marcosfrm@gmail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- I removed a hard drive containing a swap volume and my system does not boot anymore. It waits indefinitely for the missing swap device. The behaviour (no timeout) was questioned by Thomas: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.initramfs/3786 First, I tried omit 'resume' module without sucess. It took some time to find an apparently SUSEism nowaitforswap="yes" that fixed it. I see this patch on Factory. But it does not appear to be applied on 13.2: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/openSUSE:Factory/dracut/0046-dr... So, for now, I think nowaitforswap="yes" must be assumed when we omit the 'resume' module at least (my server does not hibernate...). dracut-037-17.6.1.x86_64 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
