42.2 kernel panic after latest update - help!!!

English Install/Boot/Login

Hi all,

I have a small problem with my Open Suse 42.2 after the latest update. It presents the following error on boot:

Now, I was able to boot up Linux by using advanced option and choosing the old version (see the next screenshot).

I can see two copies of files on my system now. How do I fix the problem so that I boot to my system as before?

Any advice and help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi all,

After doing some research I am trying to remove the new kernel which is giving me problem (4.4.74-18.20.1).

Nothing to do.

Why would this happen? I just want to remove the new kernel that does’t work and get my linux to boot to the old one that works :-).

I would appreciate your input :-).

no kernel-default-base is installed, missing the i in first column…

Better:

zypper se -si kernel-default

And please use Code-Tags…

Thank you for the reply :smiling_face:. I got it resolved, I was missing the .x86_64 at the back that’s why the command didn’t work. I have suggested the suse to update their documentation.

From your List, there was no kernel-default-base installed…
