[opensuse] Are new post-install hooks causing rpm to run after reboot?
All, After updates today, the computer(s) were extremely slow after reboot. So being curious I launched top to find out what was grinding away. To my surprise, rpm was the main culprit, just churning away for the first few minutes after reboot -- along with a grub install. What is rpm doing running? Why was the grub install and grub-mkconfig not run by dracut prior to reboot? -- David C.

This is likely the "purge-kernels" tool, which removes older kernels. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Makes perfect sense -- glad to see it is working correctly now `:)` -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

not so quick, check that you have your designated number of past kernels. I have disabled "purge-kernels" and perform by hand as I recently lost all but current and last where I have it configured to retain those plus two. when purge-kernels fails is too late to recover. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
