Hi,
Ok I have 2 kernels installed on my system 4.9.0rc6 & 4.8.11 with no repository installed because they were deleted. The system was doing an update to a previous kernel and now my system cannot boot. How would I delete the kernel and stay with the default. Default 4.9.0 rc6.
Also mentioning how could I install the lastest kernel repository since the current one was deleted. I think if I just upgrade my kernel it would fix the problem. Am I correct?
Hi
Select the advanced option in grub and select the previous kernel, or if using btrfs, rollback to an earlier snapshot…
You must have had Kernel:Head repo for 4.9.x and Kernel:stable for 4.8.11.
To add them back;
zypper ar -f -g -n "repo-Kernel:HEAD" http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/standard/ "repo-Kernel:HEAD"
zypper ar -f -g -n "repo-Kernel:stable" http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/stable/standard/ "repo-Kernel:stable"
ok their added.
It askes me to run “snapper rollback”.
How would I do that?
fixed.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Oh wait one thing.
When I reboot the bootloader pops up again.
To prevent this I would just have to just update?
Zypper dup?
Hi
Yes, depending on what kernel your wanting? then use zypper dup --from <repo> to switch it to the repo you want.
# zypper dup --f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/HEAD/standard/

Hi
Ahh, so you booted from a snapshot? If so run the command snapper rollback <number you booted from> and reboot…
