This is the YaST2 NCurses mode, also known as "text mode". This is a regular mode for users who don't have X11, who don't want to install X11, or who (for whatever personal reason) prefer a text mode over a GUI. -- 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.

I had to unmount that partition by hand and it worked again. i am not sure if this is propperly logged. btw: the error was reproduceable but the chain of events that lead to this place was very wired and the computer is now working again. i would like to help more but i was busy to make my notebook working again. -- 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.

Unfortunately i am unable to use a keyboard in these situation so i can not confirm the problem is a mount. 1. Boot from DVD 2. yast ascii mode -> cancel install (e.g. at the point with licence questions, choose abort) 3. ascii yast starts 4. select "install/system start" 5. select cd-rom -> error: repository not found use alt-f3 -> mount /dev/sr0 device or resource busy strange: i can not type anything in the shells but keyboard is clearly working (e.g. alt-fx) this differs from my original problem in two cases 1. i was already installing when a problem occured and i got back to (here point 4) 2. i was able to use the keyboard to type -- 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.
