Thanks, we checked kiwi in. Hope this fixes the Live media - and then we can release... I downloaded openSUSE-KDE-LiveCD-i686-Build0318-Media.iso. It boots on my VM. I have not yet installed using it as I'm doing kernel bisections at the moment, but it certainly is a step in the right

I will do the install later this evening.
=========== Added later =============
Installation of GRUB2 failed due to missing files the same as happened with MS2. The specific files not found are:
/usr/sbin/grub2-mkconfig /usr/sbin/grub2-install
When I retried the bootloader installation using GRUB rather than GRUB2, the installation finished correctly.
I think that the release can proceed as long as we post the problem and workaround on the "most annoying bugs" list.
Larry I hope that this is not taken as the go-ahead to release MS #3 because it is doing on the 32-bit system the same as the last build I downloaded did: you need to type "nomodeset" on the kernel boot line before the CD will do anything. Please open a bugreport and update the wiki page: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Most_annoying_bugs_12.2_dev with a reference to the bug report.
No "nomodeset" and all you get is going around and around in an endless loop of the "system" (a name for want of any other better word right now) of not doing anything and the screen coming up with "No signal". Andreas
Hi Andreas, Please see my reply to Larry Finger I posted a minute or so ago where I wrote: quote Hi Larry, Sorry for the delay in responding (I've been fooling around with Fedora 16 and Kubuntu Oneiric, both of which work perfectly with my hardware and not only do the Live versions work but each installs perfectly "out of the box" - Kubuntu, in fact, provided me with my 1920x1080p resolution on the monitor without the need for the "real" nVidia driver). I note that the Release Notes for Milestone #3 now contain the warning that "nomodeset" may need to be added to the kernel command line before the Live CD will actually do something. A few minutes ago I went to start an account on Novell's Bugzilla but found that the details which I must provide would not be provided to an encrypted site - and I am not about to send all my personal details over a channel which is not secure. unquote BC -- There comes a time in the affairs of a man when he has to take the bull by the tail and face the situation.
