Description Raymond Wooninck 2008-08-25 18:22:00 UTC 
Since the last two kernel updates in openSuSE Factory, the menu.lst file for Grub is not adjusted correctly. The lastest updates (25 August) delivers at least the correct sequence, but all the failsafe options and resume options are deleted. 

I have attached two menu.lst files. The first one was the active one before the update and the second one is the file that remains after the update. The update is done through the sw_single component of Yast. 

The system is correctly booting with the incorrect menu.lst, but there is no difference between the failsafe and standard boot option.

Regards

Raymond

The upgrade to kernel version 2.6.27-rc4-4 delivered exactly the same result.
Comment 4 Raymond Wooninck 2008-09-10 14:30:26 UTC 
The issue was resolved with the latest version of perl-bootloader.
