Well, this thread has multiplied substantially so losing a detail here or there is understandable. In fact, I was momentarily puzzled when I saw the version numbers but got distracted before following up on it. /I/ didn't add them on /my/ system... could be an update script?... the bootloader
They aren't included in mine either. In fact, 9.3 didn't even put a "root" command (I have a separate /boot partition): ###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: linux### title SUSE LINUX 9.3 kernel (hd0,0)/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda2 vga=normal selinux=0 splash=silent resume=/dev/hdb3 showopts initrd (hd0,0)/initrd (Without a separate /boot partition, those kernel and initrd locations would of course be (hd0,0)/boot/<filename>.) This entire thread has been very confusing and puzzling. I have never seen any reports of this kind of behaviour in the grub install routines, nor have I ever encountered a problem with those routines myself. The only thing that comes to mind is that Charles might have inadvertently interrupted the bootloader routine when he installed his system (unless he sought to modify it manually, and made an error that Yast did not catch -- no extra computer here to test out that possibility). I certainly do not think it is an installation bug. -- Moral indignation is jealousy with a halo. -- HG Wells -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
