Comment # 5 on bug 1208571 from Felix Miata

Created attachment 865077 [details]
"y2logs" tgz + tgz of /root/inst-sys from 15.5beta NET installation to host
hp945

Instead of trying with zram=1, as soon as the license screen appeared, I did
swapon /dev/sda5, which showed:
# free
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:       3051800     1515292       800992      171400     1074080     1536508
Swap:       2582744           0     2582744
Warning: Unable to download list of repositories or no repositories defined.
The partitioner detail added /dev/sda5 to fstab for swap without my help, but
the partitioning summary omitted it.
On initial installation settings screen, it reported only 9% freespace on the
6,400 MiB / target sda33. This warning wasn't present on its last appearance
before clicking on "Install", where sizes to download and to install were a
mere 419M and 1.5G. Before clicking it I checked sizes to find 1472324 used,
839096 free, 1579476 available; swap total 2582744, used 0.

Again when reboot occurred I wasn't looking, but it boots, and network works.
Each fstab entry is duplicated, except for swap. The 9% freespace warning
caused me to backup into partitioning to respecify selections that were
apparently not remembered from the first partitioning pass.

I don't think I've ever seen a bootable fresh installation with an empty
/var/log/YaST2 before. My mistake looks like copying /root/ from the 15.4
installation to the target without remembering to remove /root/inst-sys/. I
often do this so that my .profile and .bashrc are as I like on first root
login. Or, maybe this didn't matter, and saving of content to /var/log/YaST2
step was never reached before reboot? There was no bootloader step to take at
the end with bootloader not managed and none of Grub or os-prober installed.
