Hi,
I'm very new to Linux. Recently installed OpenSUSE 13.1 alongside Windows 7. Installed without problems and quickly. Then the system prompted me to install some updates and, apparently upgraded itself to a new kernel version. This new version does not boot and hangs at "loading initial ramdisk". The previous version does boot without a problem. I did a quick search on google and it seems that this problem exists for users of other distributions as well: Arch Linux, Debian etc.
My guess is that there may be not enough space on my hard disk after the update. I have two partiotions, aside from swap etc: 20Gb and about 200Gb. I was thinking about merging them. Would this be a good approach?
Thanks for any advice on this.
Ivan
