I started statd there. It didn't want to first but then it added something and started running. Now NFS client works (the mounts are in fstab as the 'mount -a' reveals.

Please open a bug report for this.

And tens of other stuff.

Systemctl shows 117 active units.

Systemctl --failed lists these:

UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB JOB DESCRIPTION NetworkManager.service loaded failed failed Network Manager dev-sda1.swap loaded failed failed /dev/sda1

These are apparently ones that been tried to run but they fail. I don't see why NetworkManager should be started at all though.

Because we don't know if NM should be started or not : the configuration is part of another file (/etc/sysconfig/network/config, NETWORKMANAGER file). So, NM service is always "enabled" but there is a precondition which checks for /etc/sysconfig/network/config and cause the service to fail if set to NO).

OTOH swap seems to work according to top.

swapon -s is better to check that. Give also systemctl status dev-sda1.swap output.

There are tens more, some I know by name like

apparmor.service error inactive dead apparmor.service

I've never known that I would have needed it anyway.

I see that a related report has been already made. Maybe I should add my findings there.

I made another VBox, NET install, LXDE. I zypper dupped it this morning and tweaked it it some, to a basic functioning state.

Booted conventionally it works like a champ.

Now, with systemd (F5 at boot), I get this:

systemctl status nfs.service nfs.service - LSB: NFS client services Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/nfs) Active: failed since Mon, 05 Sep 2011 12:09:41 +0300; 27min ago Process: 5709 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/nfs start (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) CGroup: name=systemd:/system/nfs.service ├ 3031 /usr/sbin/rpc.idmapd └ 3079 /usr/sbin/rpc.statd --no-notify

Still the NFS shares are operational.

Let's follow this on https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=715926

...

...

OTOH swap seems to work according to top.

swapon -s is better to check that.

swapon -s Filename Type Size Used Priority /dev/sda1 partition 2103292 462156 0

Give also systemctl status dev-sda1.swap output.

systemctl status dev-sda1.swap dev-sda1.swap - /dev/sda1 Loaded: loaded Active: failed since Mon, 05 Sep 2011 12:04:54 +0300; 26min ago What: /dev/sda1 Process: 4179 ExecActivate=/sbin/swapon /dev/sda1 (code=exited, status=255) CGroup: name=systemd:/system/dev-sda1.swap

So, it was correctly enabled at one time during boot, probably by something else.

Hello,
I wonder if it would be useful to list the in the output log , before the
size test, the following:
- Rpms sorted by name 
- Rpms sorted by size

opensSUSE runs very well on a Toughbook CF-51 MK1 (Centrino 1, 1GB RAM, ...) However, this machine does refuse to boot from USB (probably an artificial BIOS limitation). There are valid reasons to state "this hardware is too old and not longer supportable with reasonable effort". However, those should be judged thoroughly and not applied lightly.

As rough as the 11.4 release was with the discrepancies between DVD and CD, I would support dumping the DVD image entirely in favor of focusing the resources on the LiveCD.

Why? I normally install from DVD because there are more software patterns and more languages to choose.

Sounds like USB-1.0 or worse. I've seen the same, on an older machine that have a mix of USB1 and USB2 ports.

No, it's not. USB "drives" are very often dog slow when it comes to writing. Running a Live USB stick mounts the free space on the stick RW and writes there.

A live CD writes only to ramfs, which is very fast.

I have made a feature request to openfate long ago where I suggested to make a live image that boots from USB and even totally toram as an option. I did not get much support I guess. In hopes that someone would have become interested, vote: https://features.opensuse.org/311011 I'm still very much in favor of it, I'd make it myself, but I haven't got the skills to do that. It could be for example equipped with LXDE and possibility to download more software as needed and within space on the stick. Of course it also has an installer in it.
