Still booting from factory NET CD build 0133, and using FTP install from DVD 11.1 Beta 5.1. Exactly the same behaviour as on the Powerbook yesterday. Also tried burning to DVD and using that in an external USB drive (neither machine has a DVD reader :-( ) - same 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.

It didn't do so in the past. Your hfs is has the label "Untitled" and YaST wants to set that label again after formatting. But this is not implemented. Lowering priority since hfs support is not a main focus. Don't think there is time for openSUSE 11.1. Also, the program hformat is missing in the installation system. Sorry, I cannot give a good workaround besides not formatting the partition during installation with YaST (in fact I am surprised this can even be selected somehow). -- 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.

This should give us the 11.0 status again. Proper solution is something for the future (if ever). -- 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 expect to try installing from this at the weekend. I can see it's a low priority fro a proper fix, but this sounds like a usable work-around. -- 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.

But YaST first formats and then set the label. -- 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.

Not sure if this was an intentional work-around or a lucky accident... -- 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.
