It say that change appear between 2008-11-11 12:07:57 and 2008-11-11 16:08:52. But last log from y2log is 2008-11-11 12:58:09 and it is only some package related. So I think, that this log disappear..I try reproduce it on test-suite and sure that it never happen. jozo - perl should filter it, but sending initrd section for other type is not good. -- 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.

It it still doesn't boot then add to windows section entry 'makeactive' so it looks like: ###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: windows### title Windows rootnoverify (hd0,0) makeactive chainloader +1 This expect that windows is on first boot disc and first partition. -- 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.
