Description Juergen Weigert 2010-11-29 19:11:45 UTC 
Please verify if the functionality got silently dropped.
11.2 had "Repair Installed System" in the grub menu. 
I cannot see this in 11.3 or 11.4

If this is dropped, we should change the StartupGuide accordingly.

Comment 3 Steffen Winterfeldt 2010-11-30 09:55:19 UTC 
yast2-repair has been discontinued and so the menu item was removed
(or so, e.g. bug 541793).
Comment 4 Juergen Weigert 2010-11-30 15:53:57 UTC 
yast2-repair was dropped due to FATE#308679

I cannot see that we have similar functionality anywhere. 
Thus the remaining actions for my team are:

* push this information into the release-notes

* update the startup guide to no longer mention any repair options.

Comment 8 Larry Finger 2011-02-20 03:17:58 UTC 
This "bug" appears to be fixed, thus I will close. If the menu has not been fixed, please reopen the bug and move it to the appropriate version. Thanks.
