Description Steffen Ungruh 2011-03-18 00:06:17 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.9.2.15) Gecko/20110303 SUSE/3.6.15-1.1 Firefox/3.6.15

The problem is pretty straight forward. Several boot scripts (/etc/init.d/boot.d/) break when /usr is on a separate partition.

For what could I see...

1. startpreload: The systemtap files are placed in /usr.
2. rootfsck: /usr/bin/on_ac_power is problematic.
3. localfs: on_ac_power again...
4. cycle: grub is in /usr as well.
5. klog: And so is klogconsole.

Well, there you go.
Changing the paths in the packages systemtap-runtime, pm-utils, grub and util-linux seems to be the course of action.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install system with a separate /usr partition.

Sorry I am not reponsible for broken start scripts.
Reassigned to maintainer of preload.rpm

fixed for 12.1 by mounting /usr where it belongs: in initrd
