Created attachment 655453 [details] two y2logs tgz sets in .zip from failing TW installation attempts on 32bit host gx280 Attached are two sets of logs. The second is from a final try this evening using mirrors.us.kernel.org as source instead of download.opensuse.org. The latter set includes my mistake in not first ensuring en_US (which was Afrikaans initially) before clicking Next on license screen, then clicking Back to fix at first offered opportunity. Mailing list thread: http://lists.opensuse.org/yast-devel/2015-11/msg00066.html This happened multiple times, then I wrote the mailing list explaining, then I tried again, achieving normal success. Later I tried again, and repeated the same failure, several times. Then trying yet again to get better logs and more detailed bug description and reproduction steps, success, 4 times. Last I tried the alternate installation source, which both succeeded and failed, then filed this. To reproduce: 1-initialize static IP TW HTTP installation using Grub to load linux and initrd previously downloaded from mirrors (6 Nov. version) 2-click Next on license screen 3-click Next on Installation Options screen 4a-click create partition setup on suggested partitioning screen (which announces no automatic proposal possible), or 4b-click expert partitioner on suggested partitioning screen, next, then custom partitioning (for experts), next Actual behavior: 1-(if 4a) screen offering custom partitioning for experts is (quickly) skipped 2-expert partitioner screen (quickly) appears showing entire /dev/sda is unpartitioned 3-fdisk -l on vtty2 shows all 31 existing partitions on /dev/sda Expected behavior: 1-screen offering expert mode appears that when clicked results in 2-expert partitioner screen appearing, 3-showing all existing partitions on /dev/sda
