To install, I proceed as follows: cd /boot wget --output- document=vmlinuz.install http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed /repo/oss/boot/x86_64/loader/linux wget --output- document=initrd.install http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed /repo/oss/boot/x86_64/loader/initrd I retrieve the disk UUID via lsblk : lsblk -f /dev/sdb2 NAME FSTYPE LABEL UUID MOUNTPOINT sdb2 linux_raid_member 62-210-136-200:0 f10e1a06-0cb2-1aeb-e92f-937476d3ea65 └─md0 ext4 5b69725e-6914-463e-bf26-6b02a222f59c/boot I modify on ubuntu the 40_custom to add a section that will allow me to start the installation : menuentry "openSUSE Tumbleweed" { set root='mduuid/f10e1a060cb21aebe92f937476d3ea65' linux /vmlinuz.install noapic usessh=1 sshpassword="12345678" install=http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ hostip=XXX netmask=XXX gateway=XXX nameserver=XXX } Indeed, in my notes, based on the tutorial I had taken over, the noapic option is used. I then edit the /etc/default/grub file to change the `GRUB_DEFAULT="openSUSE Tumbleweed"`. update-grub2 Reboot ssh -X root@IP_SERVEUR and then run the installation (yast.sh I think). Then the openSUSE installation takes over, deletes ubuntu, reformats the disks as I wish and the server works fine afterwards. So the installer thinks it's doing the right thing by defaulting the option I use to start the installation. In the end, it's really well done, the bug is me following the tutorial without cleaning up this piece of code. However, the behavior of the NOAPIC option has changed in 6.9, and would otherwise have gone unnoticed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
