Hello, first: there's another issue: I could not register while update ("None of the installed products can be registered at the Novell registration server.") -> bugreport? Am Sonntag, 26. November 2006 17:02 schrieb Juan Erbes:

Installation sources: Factory tree and inst-source-extra from yesterday, which should be newer than RC1.

How has You made the update, online, or via CDs? Because online I could'nt make the update.

I have mirrored Factory and -extra (with several --exclude's) and added the install kernel and initrd to my grub menu. http://en.opensuse.org/Installation_without_CD Regards, Christian Boltz -- URLs: absurd lange Worte die man nicht umbrechen darf [David Haller] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

- grub is not installed - my system still boots the grub which was   installed by 10.1 (still living on another partition)

Possibly bug #223576?

I don't think so for several reasons: - only one harddisk - booting works (with the "old" grub from 10.1) - 10.2's grub was obviously not even installed (your bugreport sounds like it was) - mixing things up in a way that exactly meets the 10.1 state from the other partition would be a bit too lucky ;-) Regards, Christian Boltz PS: I see the update-test-trivial update again in both opensuse-updater and YOU after I have re-enabled the update source (side effect of the failed registration) --

10.1 installed grub to the /boot partition, and made it active. The MBR boots the active partition. Your 10.2 install could have installed grub to its /boot partition and never made it active. This could be why it doesn't show.

To test this, start fdisk and make your 10.2 partition active, and reboot

I guess that's pointless because my 10.1 grub lives in the MBR. Nevertheless, I'll make the 10.2 partition active - but I will replace the reboot by shutdown, sleep, boot ;-) so I will report back tomorrow.

That will not work, because the MBR takes precedence. Instead, edit the grub/menu.lst of 10.1 and add something like this: title SuSE test 10.2 root (hd1,11) <-- replace with the location of your 10.2 grub boot parttition chainloader +1 - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
