[Bug 328945] New: Gnome Live CD won't install inside VMWare' s Fusion on OS X
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=328945 Summary: Gnome Live CD won't install inside VMWare's Fusion on OS X Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: RC 2 Platform: i586 OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.4 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: banderso@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Development When attempting to install the live CD inside a VMWare guest virtual machine, the live install fails to discover any disks to install against. The Live portion of the OS starts up and runs just fine the process just fails during the install. This is also fails the same way using VMManager where the host is SLED 10 SP1. IMO, this bug is critical since many users install live cds into a virtual machine first. -- 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.

Maybe its a host problem? -- 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 get "Could not find the openSUSE Repository." There are several I/O errors in the kernel messages related to the cd rom device, which is a loop back of the iso. The md5 sum is correct. -- 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.

Do we have a diff of packages being used for GNOME and KDE CDs? Also, log from the failing GNOME CD installation would be helpful... -- 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.
