OK, then you maybe hit parted bug, which zeroed some partition. Do you ran before reboot yast2 bootloader or yast2 disk or directly use parted?
I did not do: yast2 bootloader yast2 disk parted So I did just now: 1.# grub-install 2.# yast bootloader (made minor edits to default stanza) 3.# dfsee (confirmed presence of Grub on (hd0,8)) 4.reboot 5.get error 13 trying to chainload (hd0,8) 6.reboot 11.1 from sda1 stanza (without chainloading) 7.# dfsee (confirmed Grub missing from (hd0,8) again) 8.checked /etc/grub.conf to see it is now 2 lines again: setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 --forcelba (hd1,8) (hd0,8) quit 9.restored 3 line grub.conf 10.edited grub.conf to do hd0,7 & hd1,7 11.# grub-install (while md1/hd0,7&hd1,7 unmounted) 12.# dfsee (confirmed presence of Grub on (hd0,7)) 13.reboot 14.get 11.0's Grub menu by chainloading (hd0,7) 15.boot 11.0 successfully So, it appears that, as long as an md device is mounted, Grub can't be successfully written to its partitions via native Grub setup command. -- 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.
