I know we're apparently being naughty if we mention 13.2RC1 in here, but I have a question that would apply equally to 13.1 anyway.
What is wrong in the following grub.cfg line? GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=" resume=/dev/sda6 splash=silent quiet elevator='missing showopts"
I removed the apostrophe after the elevator= part, and got the system to boot, although it threw some error message about missing showopts which I overrided by pressing a key. I don't know if there should be a closing apostrophe before the quote mark or some other fix.
This was a result of me just doing an install of 13.2RC1 on an old laptop, but it was horked when configuring grub2 with some error message 'opensuse grub unexpected eof while looking for matching...' - I didn't note down the rest. So the above was the default line placed in the grub config, which doesn't seem correct, and the machine wouldn't boot at all without going through the rescue system and fixing it. I've not found anything specifically relating to this when Googling, but from bits and pieces of vaguely related errors and bugs in previous and other distros, I tracked it down to that file. So I could file a bug report, but I wonder how the grub line actually should read?
Just an update to this for the sake of future reference. I filed a bug which has now been fixed: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=901812 I'm not completely sure if the dev is implying at the end that this is fixed for the final release version of openSUSE 13.2, because I thought the goldmaster was already being published around yesterday. Hopefully it made it in the nick of time. Peter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
