Hello all,
I have seen there is the same problem of the previous versions of OpenSuSE also into 12.3. The problem is: If you try to upgrade from a DVD an OpenSuSE with software raid (mdadm), the installer don't see the previous version of openSuSE on the hard disk.
This is caused because the kernel don't recognize correctly the md arrays. In example, if i have md0 (/ root file system), md1 (/var), md2 (/srv), the installer see this as md125, md126 and md127.
This is because 1.x is now default superblock format. It includes host name; when you boot from DVD there is no hostname (or it is most likely different), so mdadm sees arrays as "foreign".
So, no DVD upgrade possible for this machines. I have tryied to edit manually the fstab on the machine, adapting to what the installer see, but after the upgrade the system becomes un-bootable.
Anyone have a good workaround for this problem?
Online update? Someone who has such system should finally open bug report and provide installer logs. Otherwise odds it gets fixed are rather low. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
