I don't know why suddenly 11B3 decided that I need the "-pae" kernel rather than the usual "-default" as in past SuSEs/openSUSEs.) Basil, I don't know why either, but I did 3 11.0b3 installs in recent days, and all of them got the pae instead, even though all were 32 bit installs and had 1G or less of installed RAM. At least I was able to boot those pae
Yeah, we're thinking about renaming kernel-default to kernel-usually-works-on-most-hardware and kernel-pae to kernel-the-one-you-really-want to avoid this confusion in the future.
A failover Kernel would be great. A kernel that is never changed/ deleted after beeing installed. Nothing for the daily work but as a golden bullet when the kernel crashed or grub is making stuppid things. Not a really new theme I know.
The kernel upgrade process should be improved... Ideally, everytime it is updated, it would be nice for zipper to keep the latest working version there and have one option on boot for "Latest working version". No sense in having more previous versions... Otherwise, agreed, it is a time killer to repair an installation if the kernel or grub crash.
