That's 10.0 not 10.1 - don't know why the have something that old... Btw. Beta4 mirror sync has not really started, so far only the directory structure exists and therefore Beta4 will get announced tomorrow - with lots of rough edges :-( Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

Is it only the beta4 CDs, or factory as well? Or I can use factory today and download beta4 CDs containing a subset of the same factory release tomorrow? Bye, -- CzP http://peter.czanik.hu/

Factory on our server is now updated with the new packages. But read the "Most Annoying Bugs" first - Beta4 has really some rough edges. Especially: UPDATE is NOT working. So, you have to do a new installation.

As I still can't reach stage, so I would like to ask one more hint: ftp.opensuse.org and ftp.gwdg.de have some differences. Which one is right?
So, you have to do a new installation.
I always do. My main focus of testing is now installation, as on a Pegasos PPC SUSE Linux 10.0 could lead to severe data loss :-( Situation is much better now, due to aggressive bug reporting and great work from YaST developers :-) Bye, -- CzP http://peter.czanik.hu/

I started to install it on PPC. When installed it in graphics mode, it froze completely: keyboard/mouse does not respond, and mouse neither. Then I started a VNC install to be able to watch F3/F4 debug consoles continuously. It turned out, that 256MB of RAM is not enough for installation. I started installing for the third time. Now I did a swapon /dev/hda2 on a previously created 1G swap partition. I just started the package manager to resolve conflicts, and already 128M of swap is used... It's extremely slow :( Bye, CzP

Please create a bugreport with the above information and CC me on it. thanks, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

Just to give some positive feedback also: after 5 hours of fight in Friday night, I got beta4 running on my Pegasos PPC :-) I had to install a number of packages by hand, to replace i586 packages suggested by YaST, but now it runs fine with X. Bye, CzP
Hi! I remember the times when I could install SuSE Linux with 8MB RAM. Even the fattest commercial UNIXes can install with 256MB of RAM only. FYI: Recently I found out that 10.0 won't install with 192MB RAM (just as the SLES9). Regards, Ulrich On 17 Feb 2006 at 20:04, Peter Czanik wrote:

Ah, the good old days :-) right

Oh well, those UNIXes cannot do all the stuff Linux does. And ppc is 64 bit AFAIK, so it needs more RAM than x86-32.

A 100MB Linux partition complet with servers, X, browser and games :)
And ppc is 64 bit AFAIK, so it needs more RAM than x86-32.
The one, I installed is 32 bit (Pegasos PPC). At the end it used 1500MB+ swap, so there must be some very bad memory leak... Bye, CzP

Well, in some cases it might work (network installation) -- just set "mimmem=0" on boot, to disable the linuxrc memory check ;) Regards CChristoph

I assume 10.0 on ppc. Have here 10.0 happily running on a 256MB machine. During install, you get a warning. But what the the heck, a warning ain't a fatal error ;-)) Hans -- pgp-id: 926EBB12 pgp-fingerprint: BE97 1CBF FAC4 236C 4A73 F76E EDFC D032 926E BB12 Registered linux user: 75761 (http://counter.li.org)

Sorry, was up all night (fresh install beta3 was no succes) and read what I wanted to read :P (saw ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/10.1/SUSE-Linux10.1-Beta4-Extra so checked for the install-source of beta4). Anyway, I will down the beta4 also to check the Dutch translation in the install. So wanted to do a fresh one allready. I guess it is gonna be a mess. Not you're fault Andreas, changing the manager in this stage and so fast is pretty hot devving. Azerion
