Hi listers

I have a workstation with two disks:

[root@casablanca ~]#

NOTE: the first disk has got a gpt partition table and a BIOS boot partition, the second has got an msdos partition table.
Both disks have got fedora 22 installed. They can run independently from one another.
----------

Just now, I did an update

dnf update
...
...
...

on both disks. I rebooted both disks.

The result on the first disk (with gpt partition table) is this:
[root@thunder ~]# uname -r

Apparently, the kernel 4.2.3-200.fc22.x86_64 is not installed, but the machine according to uname -r
booted from it?????

The result on the second disk (with msdos partition table) is this:

[root@casablanca ~]# uname -r

[root@casablanca ~]#

Here, the kernel 4.2.3-200.fc22 is installed and the machine according to uname -r booted from it.

---------

Does the BIOS boot partition  make the difference? Can anybody explain this strange behaviour?

Thanks for your attention.
