[Bug 1190079] New: [doc] 1.1.2.12 The installation process
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1190079 Bug ID: 1190079 Summary: [doc] 1.1.2.12 The installation process Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.3 Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE Leap 15.3 Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: Documentation Assignee: fs@suse.com Reporter: sbtuttle@outlook.com QA Contact: fs@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- 1.1.2.12 The installation process: https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/startup/html/book-startup/art-op... Not sure what to suggest here - the doc says: "After the installation routine has finished, the computer is rebooted into the installed system. Log in and start YaST to fine-tune the system." I installed from a flash USB drive. After the installation was complete and the reboot was started, I was fearful of removing the USB drive - I did not want to pull any rugs out so to speak. As expected, the system rebooted just fine back to the start of the installation screen on the USB drive. Not a huge problem - I just did a power on reset to start the boot again and and did my usual esc key sequence to get to my boot setup where I could switch the drive order so that my linux disk was first priority. I then removed the USB drive and rebooted just fine to the new system. Like I said, not a problem. I guess I was curious if there was some magic that the installation process was going to perform to actually reboot into the newly installed system, thus bypassing the USB drive that was still inserted. The answer in my case, of course, is no - but I was not surprised and maybe actually happy that such magic was not possible since I would much rather retain control over the boot process. I guess I might only suggest that some mention of removing the installation media is required to allow the reboot to the real system and not right back to the start of installation process. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Boot from Hard Disk boots the installed system and is selected by default, because the CD is often left in the drive." So, it seems you already have this covered and if I had done my due diligence and read further I would have realized I could have just selected the "Boot from Hard Disk" option without having to remove the USB drive, reset my boot priorities, and then rebooted again. Not sure if you would want to just cancel this report now, or maybe still add something to section 1.1.2.12 as a hint that the "Boot from Hard Drive" should be selected when the reboot happens. This is just a minor issue that maybe needs no changes if no one else is tripping over it. I'm OK either way. Cheers, Scott -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

To customize the system configuration or to install additional software packages, start YaST. " -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
