While creating one myself, I also added some nfs mounts. For some reason, these mounts don't work correctly (due to a missing rpcbind, nfs service tries to access /etc/init.d/rpcbind, but that isn't available, hence it fails). Now the whole system is installed in /, so emergency should work, but it spits out some errors in an endless loop. Scrrenshot attached. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. add some mount target, that does not exist or results in some other failure 2. reboot Actual Results: results in error loop Expected Results: enter emergency mode -- 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.
