... = latest-1,latest,running
I am using this feature for quite some time now and it is working as it should. I have my systems configured to keep three kernels but the above line in my zypp.conf is a little different. During testing I found out, that it should should say:
multiversion.kernels = latest,latest-1,latest-2,running
Maybe you can try this.
Multiversion = provides:multiversion(kernel) worked, so I guess I'll just to back to using that to ensure installing a new kernel doesn't leave me with an unbootable installation.
Maybe I don not understand you correctly here but the above sentence to me is reading as if you were using the
'multiversion.kernels = latest,latest-1,latest-2,running'
feature without having
'Multiversion = provides:multiversion(kernel)'
uncommented in zypp.conf?
Could be this is the answer to the thread. I saw nothing to indicate multiversion.kernels was not an alternative to multiversion above it in zypp.conf, so I uncommented the newer/multiversion.kernels only. Even so, I don't understand the philosophy that by default it's OK to uninstall the running kernel before ensuring its replacement and/or replacement's initrd actually work. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
