Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Get openSuSE KDE live image from: http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/12.2-Milestone2/iso/ In my case openSUSE-KDE-LiveCD-Build0258-x86_64.iso but the same happened with older images. Write it with imagewriter to a USB stick. Put USB stick in system with N2800 motherboard. At the very first graphical screen where one is presented to boot from harddisk or the live KDE image from USB stick, the system no longer respond to the keyboard. CentOS seems to be able to boot on it, see this recent article: http://www.linuxtech.net/reviews/intel_DN2800MT_cedarview_atom_power_draw.ht... With the help from the above mentioned article I'm able to get the system more or less booted,using an PXE boot and using the video=LVDS-1:d kernel line. This brings me into the "old" graphical system installer. At some point I'm able to configure the install server, either NFS or HTTP, but neither of the two is able to pass this point, as the system is not able to detect an openSUSE repository. It looks like, that no packages are transferred from the N2800 motherboard. I still did not figure out, how to change a USB live iso image (to add the kernel option video=LVDS-1:d to it). I can mount the iso image, copy the structure, change the kernel option, but I don't know how to make a bootable USB image out of that. Sofar I don't have a usefull system :( Actual Results: On the first graphical boot screen (where one can select to start from harddisk, or to start the live KDE image) the system is completely stuck. No responds at all on the keyboard. It is not possible to use the arrow keys to select the failsave image to boot. Expected Results: The system should boot and be able to pass the graphical boot screen According this article: http://www.linuxtech.net/reviews/intel_DN2800MT_cedarview_atom_power_draw.ht... CentOS can boot from it, according to above article. It would be very good it this can be fixed for openSUSE_12.1 -- 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.
