[opensuse-factory] Better Support for Intel Macs 10.3

Are ther any plans on this? I installed 10.2 on a Mac Mini and it works quite
well. But I found the following problems:
- (Official) documentation
- Installer does not recognize Mac partitons. YaST shows them as Linux Native.
What about a resizer for HFS+, so we do not need bootcamp?
- Bootloader Installation even on a partition is not possible. I had to call
grub-install /dev/sda3 manually. Maybe we could integrate refit
- After first reboot, the partition table was not altered, so booting the
installed system was not possible, as YaST found no partitions from type
82/83. Booting the rescue system and changing the ID solved this issue
- how to switch bluetooth/wlan on/off? On Notebooks this is usually done via
Hotkeys, but on the Mac Mini, if you switched it off under Mac OS X, how can
you enable it under Linux
-Special keys: the eject button works, but the volume buttons do not (normal
USB Mac keyboard)
Shall I create a wiki-page for the problems or bugzilla entries? Or is perfect
intel mac support not a goal at all?
