I had short discussion with Josef (maintainer of perl-Bootloader) and result is that it could be possible only if you did update from older openSUSE (11.0 and older where missing option DEFAULT_VGA in /etc/sysconfig/bootloader) and it is possible only if you change flavor of kernel (your case). Sorry without logs I am not able to write more. The bug is closed like noresponse. feel free to reopen bug if you decide to provide required yast logs -- 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.

Changing kernel removes at first default and then install new flavor, so all information from append is lost. It solves information from sysconfig, which is newly introduced. without it I am not able to get append. Jozo - Is possible to choose some non failsafe entry and write it to sysconfig during upgrade? -- 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.

The feature is available from 11.1. It means your first openSUSE 11.0 doesn't include all options in /etc/sysconfig/bootloader. The missing options are not saved if your update (update to openSUSE 11.1) was done via "zypper dup". Next if you didn't start yast2-bootlaoder and didn't save any changes via yast2-bootloader your /etc/sysconfig/bootloader is still "empty". Finally your last update via "zypper dup" to 11.2 is broken because /etc/sysconfig/bootloader is still empty and your kernel also changed flavor. It is bad luck and I am not able to fix it. Problem is that feature was added to openSUSE 11.1 and older version doesn't support it. If you start with clean installation of 11.1 and after that start update to 11.2 it works also with changes kernel flavor. It is logical... only yast2-bootloader changes options in /etc/sysconfig/bootloader but it is necessary to start it only update of RPM package doesn't update options there. I accept that it is a bug but I tried to explain why it happened. -- 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.
