Hi,
upon booting I get these messages on the splash screen :
doing fast boot
creating device nodes with udev
udevd[172]: failed to execute ‘/etc/sysconfig/network/scripts/ifup-sysctl’ ‘/etc/sysconfig/network/scripts/ifup-sysctl lo -o hotplus’: No such file or directory
I I boot from an SSD disk, and the install done is 12.1 root on SSD drive using the existing home partition on another harddisk.
Due to a suggestion I split a previous thread into one each for several problems. Another user reported the exact same Issue,
here is a link to the post. http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/install-boot-login/468587-problems-booting-up-shutting-down-12-1-a.html#post2412543
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
I ran into this issue today, while trying out openSUSE 12.1 for the first time and found it to be a rather ugly and confusing message. There’s a ticket for it here: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=724775
I fixed it (see patch attachment in the ticket linked above) by making sure that the /etc/sysconfig/network directory gets copied to the initrd image also when nettype is not ifup. See the following patch:

Kind regards,
