http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=588770 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=588770#c0 Summary: Installer complains that the "custom bootloader isn't available anymore". Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Milestone 3 Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: chobbs@siloamsprings.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/5.0.307.7 Safari/532.9 I'm installing Milestone 3 under VirtualBox. When the installer makes it to the Installation Settings screen, I opened the Booting screen, then Bootloader Options and changed the boot time from 8 seconds to 3. After saving the option, when the installer returns to the Installation Settings screen, a dialog pops up that reads "Custom bootloader isn't available anymore. Would you like to proceed with the default bootloader." I have not yet tried to reproduce this on actual hardware, so it may be a vbox thing. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run the installer. 2. Change the boot time from 8 to 3 seconds in GRUB's options 3. Save the changes. Actual Results: A custom bootloader dialog pops up explaining that the custom bootloader is no longer available. Expected Results: The installer should return to the Installation Settings screen without error. -- 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.

"custom bootloader". It is really bad luck that you didn't attach screen-shot with pop-up message. :( IMHO the message was exactly: "Selected custom bootloader partition $DEVICE is not available any more. Set default boot loader location?" It usually happened if user changed partitioning of disk and boot partition is not available because disk was changed. It is correct and bootloader ask you about update settings. If I am right the bug is invalid if not feel free to reopen bug. BTW. I tried to change timeout during installation and it works as it is accepted. It is really necessary attach yast logs if you are sure that the message included "custom bootloader" instead of "custom bootloader partition" -- 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.
