Can't Install SUSE 10.1_b3 on Vmware (host OS is SUSE 10.0)
Hello all

I have tried to install SUSE 10.1 b3 three times under Vmware
(VmwareWorkstation-5.5.1-19175) but the install process always gets
stuck at the last second to last screen :
“Hardware Configuration / Use the following configuration / Analyzing
your system”.

Regardless of the length of time I leave the install process running,
things have just ground to a halt – there's 0 CPU activity :(

I posted a photo at

Vmware runs fine on my system. SUSE 10.1_b2 (and other OS) installed
and ran fine.

For info
host OS : SUSE 10 (Linux linux 2.6.13-15.7-smp #1 SMP Tue Nov 29
14:32:29 UTC 2005 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux).

What exactly has changed between SUSE 10.1_b2 and SUSE 10.1_b3 which
could explain this?

Any help or comments would be appreciated.

TIA
James
