Grand Sunny Morning,

Simple upgrade from a no-network SLE11-SP3 ran well.

Boot into new kernel went well

UI looked Okay, quite a happy chappy…

No keyboard or mouse access to enviroment, not so happy.

Used VM_Workshop command to cleanly take system down.

Booted with rescue system…

Tried to mount /dev/sda2 and got message attached. (09-41-16) how do you mount this?

Question to the wise people of SUSE, what information can I give you to help debug a system that boots Okay, as far as I can tell, shows the desktop but has no mouse or keyboard access? An alt_F10 did give me a blank screen

I do have a snap of the virtual machine which you’re very welcome to have…

As a FYI while the new enviroment was loading I did see quickly on the log that the VMware Tools …. Some message. How to a get access to the /var/log if it’s on a btrfs system. To be very honest I’d like you to have the virtual machine, you can have the SLE11-SP3 too if you like and use your knowledge, its not knowledge I have or wish to have. The machines are 350Gb, quite small ones…

I have also added the VMware log, there are some words in there about mice and keyboards which are not seen on a SLE11 run.

We could have a pact, I’ll debug any new SLE12 issues in Adabas if you debug the UI issues so that I can run Adabas…
