Hi guys!

If I try to install openSUSE (Leap or Tumbleweed) in a MacBook, then I cannot
use the touchpad. Notice that the touchpad works perfectly in GNOME (and in
live CD). Thus, maybe we just need one package in the installation CD.

I am having a big problem because of it. I need to install an external package
to enable WiFi, so it is not good to depend on Internet connection during the
installation. Hence, it is not good to install using LiveCD. On the other hand,
my SSD is very small (128 GiB), so I want to install Linux in an USB stick.
However, since I only have 2 USB, then I do not have enough slot to plug the
installation USB stick, the destination USB stick, and an external mouse.

I successfully installed Linux using keyboard only, but it is not easy.
