Found a Linux console terminal on /dev/console (100 columns x 37 lines) *** Starting YaST2 *** Use of uninitialized value $initial_skip in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.2/Parse/RecDescent.pm line 3054 (#1) (W uninitialized) An undefined value was used as if it were already defined. It was interpreted as a "" or a 0, but maybe it was a mistake. To suppress this warning assign a defined value to your variables. To help you figure out what was undefined, perl will try to tell you the name of the variable (if any) that was undefined. In some cases it cannot do this, so it also tells you waht operation you used the n (.) operator, even though there is no . in your program. redirecting to "systemctl --ignore-dependencies stop network.service" ^\/usr/lib/YaST2/startup/Second-Stage/S09-cleanup: line 24: 25710 Quit rcnetwork stop After that with even waiting for an hour nothing more than the attached image is visible.
