This caused the lvm module to spit out some error messages (as expected, but since I don't use lvm, this shouldn't really bother, should it?). However, some steps later, the boot process halted again, this time during some udev disk mapping action (I believe, I don't have the machine at hand now). At a later attempt the machine booted fine, so I guess it might be some problem with udev? Where should I focus additional checks? I'm willing to spend some more time, but need some guidance where to look. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
