Currently I have only two options: delay 11.0 or close the bug as WORKSFORME.
Have a look at the bug #396444 ( https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=396444 ). It seems that our wizards of oS finaly found what goes wrong - hooray !!! :-)
I think both options are not good. If the bug cannot be fixed, there should be a detection of Vista in YaST and if Vista is detected, then a warning should pop up that the installation of openSUSE may break the booting of Vista. With a hint how to fix it afterwards. Maybe a link to the openSUSE Wiki where additional information can be added afterwards.
Then the *user* can decide if it's worth the risk. But we should be honest to our users! A user that installs openSUSE 11.0 the first time and gets a broken Windows with all the data lost (for him in the first place) -- such a user will never ever install Linux (and not only the SUSE flavour) next X years.
I second that in every respect. To be honest in such situations is the only right solution. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
