> dracut: *** Including module: suse-initrd ***

> dracut: FAILED: ... -m -usb_storage
This parameter should be `-m usb_storage`, otherwise it's interpreted as `-u`.
The suse-initrd module installs kernel modules depending on some system specific configuration (usually the `INITRD_MODULES` variable in /etc/sysconfig/kernel or the `# SUSE INITRD` comment in modprobe conf files). Could you check if `-usb_storage` is set there, or run `dracut -f --debug` and attach the output to grab the place where this wrong parameter is taken?

The original is 2 years older and contains INITRD_MODULES="". It's a multiboot but otherwise ordinary desktop PC that in 2015 was running on an 80GB Seagate HDD. In addition to the 15.4 and 15.5 installations on which this occurred on Sunday, ISTR seeing the same thing in recent previous weeks elsewhere. I booted 11 15.5s in the past hour without finding same "invalid" string in /var/log/zypp/history or string "usb_storage" in /etc/sysconfig/kernel in any of them, so it looks like probably a one timer, with OP's 15.5 a dup from a 15.4 cloning. (In reply to Felix Miata from comment #2) > # grep usb /etc/sysconfig/kernel > INITRD_MODULES="-usb_storage " This way of force loading kernel modules comes from the old mkinitrd compatibility. I don't know who/what put that wrong parameter there in the past, but if you really need to force the addition of a kernel module in the initrd, I suggest you use the dracut way, via `add_drivers` in a dracut conf file. Other than that, there is nothing to fix on the dracut package. |
