Start installation, and de-select automatic configuration. 2. Choose to use the entire hard drive (propose separate Home partition was not selected) 3. Choose to use a different administrator password from the chosen user password 4. Enable boot from MBR and disable boot from root partition 5. Begin installation. Actual Results: RPMs finish installing and the "finishing scripts" begin to run. The last message shown on the screen prior to dropping to console is "rebuilding Kernel module dependencies". Attempting to boot from hard drive on next boot takes the user to a login screen, but no login actually works. Expected Results: Finishing scripts should have completed and the system rebooted. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

When this happens you can switch to a different console and check whether /var/log/Xorg.0.log contains the same segfault in the evdev driver as in https://bugzillafiles.novell.org/attachment.cgi?id=454290.
