[opensuse-factory] Tumbleweed on SSD stopped booting

I have this *Let's see about ssd's* install on partition 3 of a 250gb tester (GPT table). It stopped booting (possibly after an update). Some start job is not completing. see attached. The SSD is in a new iStar rack http://trixtar.org/3/tinkerings/quietcool/quietcool.html ..second rack image near bottom I've noticed that as opposed to the other magnetic drives showing blue lights the light for this SSD is ALWAYS pinkish, as if it were always writing. TIA
