By default the oemboot/suse-SLED11/config.xml contains the line <package name="grub"/> which means grub will be installed and can be copied from the installed tree. I guess you did changes to oemboot/suse-SLED11/config.xml ? * if not sent your entire image description along with a complete log file not only the last lines * which kiwi version is this ?

Because the size of the ramdisk is 74G. I've already tested in non-ramdisk. But it still has this problem... -- 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 really the gzip issue. Because our server has 8 cores, I think that's who installed the system guy do install the pigz for parallel processing matter...
