Hi listers
I have a workstation with two disks:
[root@casablanca ~]# parted -l
Model: ATA WDC WD20EFRX-68E (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 2000GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B
Partition Table: gpt
Disk Flags: pmbr_boot
Number Start End Size File system Name Flags
1 20.5kB 262MB 262MB BIOS boot partition bios_grub
2 262MB 21.7GB 21.5GB ext4 Linux filesystem
3 21.7GB 32.5GB 10.7GB swsusp Linux swap
4 32.5GB 870GB 838GB ext4 Linux filesystem
5 870GB 900GB 30.0GB ext4 Linux filesystem
6 900GB 2000GB 1100GB btrfs
Model: ATA WDC WD10EADS-00L (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdb: 1000GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos
Disk Flags:
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
1 1049kB 52.4GB 52.4GB primary xfs boot
2 52.4GB 61.1GB 8703MB primary linux-swap(v1)
3 61.1GB 1000GB 939GB primary xfs
[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:

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

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.
