Hey Group; I am involved with a older system with a SIS 530/620 on board video system. Yes, miserable! The problem is that any SuSE from a boxed set 10.1 to current 10.3.Aplha# fail during booting from CD #1 just about the point at which /dev/udev is showing on the screen. It locks up the whole unit. To rescue this system I have resorted to Fedora Core 6 and it is working at this point. I tried with SuSE at the boot menu to select VESA and TEXT modes plus failsafe. Nothing worked It appears SuSE's udev is unable to setup a dev console/tty#. The screen goes black and the keyboard is dead. Anybody found a work around? -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email: " n5xwb@hal-pc.org " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb@arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 Did you know?
