Has anyone else had this problem? I did check the md5sum. It was a match.
Sorry if I'm stating the obvious, but with my technical support hat on, have you tried the article relating to this problem in the sDB? http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Black_screen_after_installation_startup I that does solve it, it might be an idea to report back. This is a problem that use to come up a lot a few years ago. Not so much any more but if somethings going to cause it to reemerge it's ugly head then I hope we can kill it before it goes into general cerculation.
