Additional Information: I just installed kubuntu 8.10 on the same place and it’s running. Therefore it’s proven to be a openSUSE bug. Please notice that the problem might occur because root directory is installed on the second hard disk drive (/dev/sdb2)! I have the same problem. This appears to be a regression from beta4 into beta5. I'm pretty sure that beta3 works. I have done dozens of 11.0 installs on this exact same machine (it is a test mule). I also tested 11.1b1, b2, and b3 on this machine. I did not get a chance to test b4 but b5 installs fine and then refuses to boot. It cannot find the hard disk. On install it locates the sis5513 and the drives are old-style /dev/hda, hdb, and hdc. The install was to /dev/hda. I tried using both LVM and partition style, both failed. On reboot, the drives are located as *** SCSI *** devices. Attempting to use root=/dev/sda2 (instead of /dev/disk/by_id/huge-long-thing) does not work. I'll try using root=/dev/hda2 shortly. This appears identical to bug 439103, which is itself apparently a duplicate of bug 440986. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 441384 *** |
