[opensuse] inserting an old ATA Hard Disk prevents booting system

Hello List - in case of interest : my root partition is on SATA Hard Disk /dev/sda1 & home partition is on SATA Hard Disk /dev/sda2 ............... whereas until now, all booted normally, this week when i insert an old ATA Hard Disk for a weekly backup, it causes booting to be unable to mount home partition on SATA Hard Disk /dev/sda2 ................... - have had a look at BIOS which sees old ATA Hard Disk all right - maybe this prevention of booting system is a side-effect of old ATA disk's demise? ............ regards -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
