[opensuse-factory] What is enabled by default in the new kernel in openSUSE 11.3
Hello Listmates, Does anybody have breakdown of what new features, controllers that are enabled and/or provided with the new kernel in openSUSE 11.3? This will also help us help others. We could post it in the FAQs on the new wiki. Any thoughts? Cheers!

it's what I did :-) but there are little understandable things.

You're asking if the openSUSE kernel has GPT support? I has for a while I'm pretty sure. Maybe even the 11.1 kernel. What makes you think it doesn't? Or are you asking if the yast partition module supports them? I don't know about that.

Out of curiosity, I just added myself to the cc list, but the bugzilla is just a couple weeks old and people appear to be looking at it, so the process seems to be going fine. fyi: You imply your 2TB drive has a GPT (GUID Partition Table). I did not think WIndows Vista supported GPT on boot drives. Has that changed with Win 7 to do so?

Apparently. This not my drive. Check out this link: http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device/storage/gpt_faq.mspx In addition, the following instructions from Novell for SLED/SLES 11 provide instructions to boot to shell and execute /efi/boot/elilo.efi from removable media. Here's the link: http://www.novell.com/support/documentLink.do?externalID=7003263 I will also cc to myself. I'm curious about the outcome. -- Cheers!
