Description Arvin Schnell 2009-08-06 10:14:52 UTC 
The sysconfig package removes /etc/sysconfig/storage. This causes
user settings to be lost.

I cannot find an explanation for the removal (except of "because
they are useless").
Comment 1 Arvin Schnell 2009-08-06 10:20:49 UTC 
Maybe the removal is to get rid of the variables HOTPLUG_MOUNT_FSTAB and HOTPLUG_CHECK_FILESYSTEMS mentioned in /usr/share/doc/packages/sysconfig/README.storage. In that case do not remove the complete file. And update
the README.
Comment 2 Marius Tomaschewski 2009-08-12 09:44:30 UTC 
OK, I'm about to fix it in the spec file (OBS Base:System/sysconfig):

 echo "Removing old autogenerated device configuration files:"
 rm -vf $(grep -sl "HOTPLUG-FLAG: *autocreated" /etc/sysconfig/hardware/hwcfg-*)
-rm -vf /etc/sysconfig/storage
+sysconfig_remove_and_set storage HOTPLUG_MOUNT_FSTAB HOTPLUG_CHECK_FILESYSTEMS

and disable installation of the obviously obsolete README.storage on 11.2.
