Description Per Jessen 2016-10-08 09:35:27 UTC 
Hardware:   office36, root over NFS.
Software:   openSUSE Leap422b3

dracut appears to assume grub2 is installed and therefore fails when it tries to update the bootloader.  

this is dracut-044-9.1.x86_64, with dracut-037-74.1.x86_64 (leap421) it just said "Update bootloader..." and exited.
I think this is a recent regression, with dracut-044-7.2.x86_64 in leap422b2 I don't see this problem.

office36:/boot # rpm -q grub2
package grub2 is not installed

Currently I get:
update-bootloader: 2016-10-08 10:57:05 <3> update-bootloader-3576 run_command.273: '/usr/lib/bootloader/grub2/config' failed with exit code 1, output:

This problem is a follow-in effect of bug#1003381.  Looking at /etc/sysconfig/bootloader :

LOADER_TYPE="grub2"

despite no grub2 being installed.  Changing to "none" solves the problem. Closing as duplicate.
