Suse 11.3 and you must load kernel first …
Recently i had a strange experience updating my OS to Open Suse 11.3 . I have system with Ubuntu and Suse 11.2 . Since Suse 11.3 was available i decided to update my Suse OS . The update went fine and the first time after the update my system rebooted properly to Suse 11.3. However after a couple of hours when i rebooted my system and chose Open suse ( 11.2 since it didn’t show 11.3 ) from the boot menu and to my horror an error showed up “you must load kernel first…” .It was sort of a heart break for me since i had spent so much time in updation . After some hours of reinstalling and other changes i kept on getting the same problem . Disappointed i logged into Ubuntu to do some other work , as i booted in and was going from the programs menu one thing suddenly flashed in front of my eyes “Bootloader” . I immediately did “sudo update-grub” at the terminal , rebooted my system ,selected Suse from boot menu and viola … i successfully logged into Open Suse 11.3 .
