Hello SuSE people, Did an upgrade with apt on my 10.0 last night. Mostly KDE stuff but included a kernel upgrade. I watched as apt installed everything and saw the kernel installed mk_initrd and lilo called. It did a couple of SuSEconfigs during the process also. At the end I did another mk_initrd, lilo, and Suseconfig. Rebooted and it won't boot. Gets way into the boot process and then just hangs with a flashing cursor after either of these 3 following commands; starting powersaved (accessing ACPI events over acpid) starting SSH daemon starting SMPPPD I have no idea what to do about this. Don't even know if it was the kernel upgrade or the rpm upgrade. I booted to the DVD and tried a "Repair System" It complained about the package database, listed about 15 packages starting with /var/lib/rpm,offered to repair, said it did, gave me an error message,"Changing environment to target system was not successful", and then dumped me out of the repair process. Same condition. Then tried the "rescue" system from the cli but I couldn't mount my system. Probably don't remember how to do it and wasn't sure what I would do except to try and rebuild the rpm database. Can somebody give me a clue here? Please? Bob S.
