http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=575362 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=575362#c0 Summary: When updating (or installing) kernel, it insists of loading by device instead of existing label in grub menu.lst Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Update Problems AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: carlos.e.r@opensuse.org QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- The previous kernel had this entry in menu.lst: title Desktop -- openSUSE 11.2 - 2.6.31.5-0.1 root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop root=/dev/disk/by-label/a_one resume=/dev/disk/by-label/a_swap splash=verbose quiet showopts vga=0x361 initrd /initrd-2.6.31.5-0.1-desktop When updating, it writes: title Desktop -- openSUSE 11.2 - 2.6.31.8-0.1 root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.31.8-0.1-desktop ==> root=/dev/sda5 resume=/dev/disk/by-label/a_swap splash=verbose quiet showopts vga=0x346 initrd /initrd-2.6.31.8-0.1-desktop Notice that this will not boot when an eSATA drive is powered before booting, as the order of devices changes, and what was sda becomes, say, sde. I installed vanilla kernel a moment ago, and again the entry is, again, incorrect: title Vanilla -- openSUSE 11.2 - 2.6.31.8-0.1 root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.31.8-0.1-vanilla ==> root=/dev/sda5 resume=/dev/disk/by-label/a_swap splash=verbose quiet showopts vga=0x361 initrd /initrd-2.6.31.8-0.1-vanilla Notice that I had this issue reported time ago on another bug, which was deemed invalid because the underlaying filesystem used another version (chroot update trick). -- 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 is correct label is set. During update of kernel yast2-bootloader is not called and you in perl-Bootloader handle "root" yourself. It is cause why it is different from menu.lst I don't know how looks like /etc/fstab and if perl-Bootloader tries to check also /etc/fstab during update of kernel. BTW option "root" is not saved in /etc/sysconfig/bootloader. Return me bug back if you want to add option "root" to /etc/sysconfig/bootloader otherwise the problem could be in perl-Bootloader or in yast2-storage and saving device names in /etc/fstab -- 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 causes fix of one bug. It is always reset to root which is same as in /etc/fstab root. But there is special case that if in fstab is label or UUID it is translated to kernel device. I check it and fix it if it is possible. -- 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.
