Hello, i have installed openSuSE 13.1 on a IBM Power7 LPAR. The Problem is that the bootloader can not installed. I installed the openSuSE on LVM (with multipath). Yaboot (ybin) ist not available. Is it possible to get it work with grub2 ? Or is there another bootloader to boot ? # grub2-install Path `/boot/grub2' is not readable by GRUB on boot. Installation is impossible. Aborting. # grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg #vgdisplay Check that device-mapper is available in the kernel.
