Is the 10.2 perl-Bootloader the same as for factory, or is that off topic here?
The kernel update produced at last a bootable system (with the exception of having to manually select the correct grub menu entry for booting, or editing menu.lst).
Some of the details of the newly added entries are bad though (I left off the irrelevant parts):
title openSUSE 10.2 - 2.6.18.8-0.3 root (hd1,4) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-0.3-default root=/dev/md0
title Failsafe -- openSUSE 10.2 - 2.6.18.8-0.3 root (hd1,4) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-0.3-default root=/dev/md0
This has been
title openSUSE 10.2 root (hd0,4) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-0.1-default root=/dev/md0
title openSUSE 10.2 (disk 2) root (hd1,4) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18.8-0.1-default root=/dev/md0
for a very good reason: together with /etc/grub.conf
setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (hd0) (hd0,4) setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (hd1) (hd1,4)
I get a boot loader installed on each of the two disks, so that when one disk gets removed from the raid1, the system still boots.
I can confirm that I have experienced the same problem (and had to edit menu.lst manually) at least the last couple of kernel updates on 10.2 i386. Now I'm running Linux version 2.6.18.8-0.3-default (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)) #1 SMP Tue Apr 17 08:42:35 UTC 2007 Rgds, Terje J.
