https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=721676 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=721676#c30 --- Comment #30 from Alun Peck <peckaj@tut.ac.za> 2011-10-08 05:35:12 UTC --- Using 64 version. Managed to start installation in text mode, and it does manage to get beyond the point of displaying "Updating kernel module dependencies ...", and reboots. Only problem is that it immediately crashes on starting stage 2 GUI part, due to the crap ATI driver that is used. To get around this problem, during the stage 1 installation I had to also add nomodeset to the boot kernel options of the default boot choice, and also change runlevel to 3. This allowed me to at least get to login, though stage 2 does not take place in text mode, not sure if there is a text mode stage 2. Unless someone knows how to get stage 2 to continue. At least I can install the half decent proprietary ATI driver and change runlevel to 5, and reboot. Rebooting, results in stage 2 trying to continue, now at least I get the openSUSE splash screen and busy mouse pointer. Nothing else appears, only thing you can do is move the busy mouse pointer around or reboot. The default rubbish ATI prevents even installing completely using text mode for stage 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.
