[opensuse-factory] RC1 looks good on G3 iMac

Just finished installing RC1 on G3 iMac from 1997 - looks pretty good.
Biggest problem by far remains since at least early Betas - other bootable systems (e.g. OS-X, other Linux) on the HD are ignored by the installer when setting up the boot loader. Raised bug https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=396361 for this.
First stage of installation says it will reboot now, but doesn't - X window goes black except for a cursor, other ttys continue as before and top shows > 99% idle. Forcing a reboot results in fsck check on restart (i.e. something wasn't umounted). Anyone else have this before I raise a bug?
Once system is up, GUI login screen is impossible to navigate with keyboard alone (i.e. no mouse) - can't even readily select a console login. Is this intentional - looks like a bug to me.
Only other thing I noticed was the ever-changing DHCP addresses noted elsewhere - happens on PPC / iMac too!
Looking good though for 11.0...
