The only problem is that text mode install does not set grub2 to also be in text mode. So, the initial reboot to complete installation did not happen correctly. Also, every boot just went, eventually, to the default OS start. So, I was not able to do things like enter kernel option when booting. Eventually, when I could log in over the network and run yast in text mode, I could configure grub2 to be character based. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install 12.3 RC1 in text mode 2. reboot 3. Actual Results: There is no visible grub2 menu. Presumably it is there. Eventually the default OS boots. Expected Results: Grub in the same mode as the OS install: text In the text mode install, I guess an option to set if grub should be in text mode as well would work. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
