I was installing under (the latest) Oracle VirtualBox Version 4.1.4 on a Windows 7 laptop. This failure occurred twice. In my cases, the screen did not go black, instead my system showed a messed up window looking like incorrect raster scan settings. I wasn't sure if it was failing during the Updating kernel module dependencies... which may have occurred very quickly, or the following Copying X Window System configuration into system... step, so I tried an experiment. On the virtual box, I tried another installation from scratch. When it got to the Initializing fonts... step, I told VirtualBox to slow down the single allocated CPU to only 8% of its rated speed. BUT, this time there was no failure, and I was able to complete the installation. In my case, I always set to Run Level 3. After logging in as root, then I startx. After my X windows/KDE stuff, I exit my session. Upon return to the text screen, I find that it is a messed up screen -- the video mode settings are screwed up, in the same way the installation looked screwed up. So, I would say this same failure occurs under Windows7/VirtualBox on my hardware, but maybe this gives someone a clue. -- 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.
