Hi,

After a failure upgrading my experimental disk from 12.2 to 12.3 (see

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=799296

I downloaded the DVD-iso (openSUSE-DVD-Build0348-x86_64.iso), applied isohybrid to it and installed from the then created USB stick. Installation goes without any warning or error, but after it's finished the system won't boot up from the disk: No operating system.

Boot in rescue mode and post "fdisk -l" output.

I am unable to boot this disk, as said in op.

Something I have done wrong, or something in the install process that is faulty?

========================== fdisk -l /dev/sdf

is your BIOS set to BOOT from your disk sdf ? The bios is likely looking for a boot loader on the first disk.. unlikely to be sdf.

It might be possible to change your bios to look at another disk (your sdf2 is 'bootable' after all).

When you installed from USB stick which partitioning method did you use, 1) allow installer to choose, 2) advanced - edit partition table? If you use the edit partition table method you can select where to create /boot and what size it will be. Same for all the other partitions. Also, did you try burning the iso directly to the stick using dd? Tom -- A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

Well ... you have at least 5 HDDs (assuming you booted from USB stick to get this output) so the first thing you need to know - from which disk you actually boot. That's something installer cannot know. I suggest you download bootinfoscript (http://sourceforge.net/p/bootinfoscript/code/ci/e7fc7064677c9cdc7bff12c315bb...) and paste output somewhere, e.g. susepaste.org. And explain how your HDDs are setup in BIOS, which boot priority, which one is boot disk. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
