Has anyone had any similar problems (perhaps with SATA?) Or is this actually a bug in the initrd generation of 10.0? Have I got the wrong end of the stick with mkinitrd?
I had the same problem (p90, 96MB RAM). Here's what I did to fix it.
1) Boot the rescue system. 2) Mount your root partition (mnt /dev/hda1 /mnt) 3) chroot to your root partition (chroot /mnt) 4) In /etc/sysconfig/kernel, add ide-generic to the INITRD_MODULES= line 5) Run mkinitrd. 6) If you are using lilo, run lilo. If you use grub, cross your fingers and pray. 7) Reboot. 9) Remember that the place for support-type questions is the suse-linux-e mailing list.
That should fix you up.
It did - many thanks. All now seems fine, though I will probably try the next beta of 10.1 (please see my other replies) Maybe this list is not quite right, but I thought I had found a bug - looks like it was known and fixed in 10.1 though I couldn't see any mention in the docs and list archives. -- Regards Richard (MQ) mailto:osl@16hd.freeserve.co.uk
