Possibilities:
1) Installer picks up someting from other installation, which it should not do. This is not very big chance to happen, but not excluded.
2) Wireless firmware setup requires clean wireless chip without any firmware loaded. This seems to me closer guess where to start troubleshooting. Driver for chip can assume that chip has not firmware, while it actually has because of present battery in laptops, and mess whole thing.
I would try first to remove anything with wireless in the name from installation that has a problem with wireless. Then, turn eee-pc off, disconnect power cord, and pull battery out. Leave it for few minutes to make sure that all hardware registers are cleared (capacitors in power supply chain discharged). Then turn on, boot to partition that has a problem, try to setup wireless again.
If this fails, then step two would be new installation, but after formatting partitions go trough turn eee-pc off, disconnect power cord, and pull battery out, leave it for few minutes drill, before attempt to install again.
If that fails then some of openSUSE wireless hardware experts should jump in.
If it works, then check the other installation, does it work after normal reboot, and then after cold reboot with pulling battery out.
I have to try the way you suggest. I did a 11.2 net.iso install this afternoon, came to the hardware configuration, and then the graphicscard config failed: Black screen. Might be wrong kernel? I don't know. Today, i quit. Tomorrow is another day. Thnx for involvement. -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball, aka M9.
