Dave, I think the issue comes from the split in three packages (-default, -default-base and -defualt-extra). At mine it looked like all three tried to run mkinitrd, but of course only the last one of the set has a complete set and can really succeed. So in short: I had the same 'warnings' and rebooted without any issues. I'm not sure if it's something really new or if it's just because zypper now shows those warnins. Pretty sure they were there before, but unremarked. (yes: they DO look scary) It's annoying, but it's expected. Thanks for the encouragement I rebooted with no problems. Some of the rpm output seems to resemble bug 431703 I installed latest factory kernel with yast and had no strange outputs on screen or in y2log but I'm presently uninstalling old kernels with zypper and the terminal is being spamed with a multitude of similar messages. From this I am concluding that this bug is actually a zypper specific bug Without giving any more details I don't know where to dupe you ;-). There are currently two problems: 1) kernel-*-base opportunistically runs mkinitrd, which fails in most scenarios: bug 491959. Hard to fix. 2) The factory kernel has some modules like ext3 built-in, but mkinitrd / modprobe has no way to find out (mkinitrd checks the running kernel's /sys/module/*, so it kind of works if you already run a similar or same kernel): bug 430405. This is will be fixed soon. It's a pity that it's not possible to have a separate script module to run after the kernel packages have installed I think this is a duplicate of bug 491959 (but please be more specific next time, "string of errors" doesn't tell much). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 491959 *** |

I haven't rebooted with the new kernel yet but the error output leads me to think that it won't work.
