My wife has bought an Toshiba L55 laptop and is wondering if openSUSE could be installed to dual boot on it.
I came with Windows 7 pre-installed and no re-install DVD so would like suggestions before I attempt to install OS 13.1 on it. 'm thinking of making a Clonezilla disk image in case I mess something up. I managed to get into the BIOS and change the boot order to DVD > USB > hard disk. Originally it had hd first (to prevent installing others?).
Does anyone know of any gotchas with this model laptop or special requirements?
Thanks, Tom I don't have any information on this model. But you might want to download the live KDE iso and burn that to a disc. Then run 13.1 off

You can also install the live DVD iso to a USB stick (it will run even better) and you can become more familiar with any hardware issues before installing to the hard disk. One of the benefits of the USB install is that it can be updated (see the opensuse SDB on the live USB with persistent file system) with all the latest patches. And then when you are ready to install, you can install from the live USB. Your new install will be fully updated right off the bat! Gustav.
