I just installed RC1 of openSUSE 11.4. It went fine until it tried to start the installed system via kexec. Here the system hang. I guess, it's because kexec did not know about 'nolapic' to be used. After a hard reboot and inserting 'nolapic' at boot prompt the installation finished without problems.
