http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=556255#c2 --- Comment #2 from Charles Arnold <carnold@novell.com> 2009-11-17 21:52:02 UTC --- You can also use the following work around with an ISO file after launching 'Create Virtual Machine" and getting to the "Summary" screen. Step 1: From the "Summary" screen, Select "Operating System Installation". Step 2: From the "Operating System Installation" screen, select "Virtual Disk" and then "Add". Step 3: From the "Virtual Disk" Screen, select your ISO file. Step 4: Press "Ok" and "Apply" to return to the "Summary" screen. Step 5: From the "Summary" screen, select "Disks". Step 6: From the "Disks" screen highlight the ISO you just added as an installation source and Select "Remove". Step 7: From the "Disks" screen select "Harddisk". Step 8: From the "Virtual Disks" screen select your ISO file. Check the "Read-Only Access" box. Step 9: Press "Ok" and "Apply" to return to the "Summary" screen. Step 10: From the "Summary" screen Press "Ok" to start the installation (assuming other settings are correct). During the installation of the guest, you may see a warning on the "Installation Settings" screen under the "Booting" section that says "It was not possible to determine the exact order of disks for device map. The order of disks can be changed in "Boot Loader Installation Details". So far, we have not seen any adverse effects from this warning by simply ignoring it. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

You will need to use a network install source to get around this problem.
i tested this (had to open the fw, as it does not use a proxy at this stage). worked properly.
ou can also use the following work around with an ISO file after launching Create Virtual Machine" and getting to the "Summary" screen...
i'll test and comment this within the next week. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The workaround also saved my time. Is this possible to make the above workaround as 11.2 update? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
