I have few concerns on the partition setting, even it might the root cause of the failure.

  1. Bios boot has only 2MB, is it the best way? IMO, 8MB should be fine
  2. we are testing RAIDLEVEL=1, but why /dev/md1 is raid 0?
  3. Swap space is 400MB, but we have 4*20G disks, is it too small?

This seems to be https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1216381

  • need to add a note when the errors above are reported or too few disks (.*) - aborting! is found on the system journal and mark it as bsc#1216381 found
