after re-reading the release notes i can see that libata can be disabled,
thanks:)

Only for 10.3, in version 11 this workaround might disappear. That's their intention :-(

 That would imply that all fake sdx references would have to be
changed to hdx , no?
But what comes next?
I can manually change the grub and fstab entries, also some samba and nfs
shares in yast, perhaps a few more configs, but there are many other
references in many many other files, how can that be dealt with after the
fact? would a symlink or three do it?

No, a symlink would not work.

You should change all the references to device independent ones, like label, id, or uuid (not sure if all are valid). Nowhere should you have references like "hda" or "sda".

In vmware... no idea.


in 10.2 we had usbfs and smbfs as sources of similar anguish. is SuSe/linux
big enough to dictate changes like that almost arbitrarily? Please note, i am
not talking about technical merits...

Unfortunately, it's not suse alone, it's all of them (developers).
