[opensuse-factory] M7
Report of the DVD openSuSE 11.2 Milestone 7 First Boot K3b burned the DVD and checked it - OK in M6 Booting the DVD It fails to find my Geforce 7200 card and reports only 1024x768 when it works fine using NVs factory file.run at 1600x1200 in X. Not a problem but a headache reading the menus that follow in a ncurses console. Your Welcome Message is still in German yet both selections above show english. The translate buttom does not offer "en" so your Lic. is accepted blindly. Based on the screen size custom fdisk - Expert Partition - lacks the wording on "Label". and the GUI can not be moved using the mouse. So none of the words can be seen under Label. Good news is that the menus let you get your previous /etc/fstab. Selection went correctly and all choices came of the DVD. Reboot! Something failed here. I believe it to be due to a lack of "modprobe ext4". My "/" partition is ext4. It failed to boot. So,I tried the DVD "Repair Installed System" > Automatic which worked without any intervention from me. It complained of missing modules. One of them was ext4. Then it came to "Triggername Package Database" and stated not found. I let it rebuild . Then it failed "Searching for Triggername" which was rebuilt Lastly, mkinitrd was wrong and failed to build correctly because it was missing /etc/scsi_io.config. However, it did write initrd MBR correctly.

Indeed and as there is no licence agreemen, there should also not be one with `zypper dup`. It is strange that if I install M6 and then do a new install of M7 I see no licence agrement. If I install M6 and then do a zypper dup, I DO get the licence agrement. Looks like a bug to me. Wether it is a technical or 'social/political' bug is another question and I hope it is a technical one. Much easier to solve. ;-) houghi -- Dr. Walter Gibbs: Won't that be grand?

I can confirm this and the license agreement does not offer English. Downloaded the DVD iso, made it available as the only repo and then zypper dup on a previous m6 install.

This has been pointed out before. It's not needed for the DVD and, AFAIK, it isn't for the live CDs.
It is strange that if I install M6 and then do a new install of M7 I see no licence agrement. If I install M6 and then do a zypper dup, I DO get the licence agrement.
It's been this way since the change was made to be only informational on the DVDs. For some reason, the same change wasn't made when using zypper and, personally, my belief is that if it's informational for one method of installation, it should be for all the possible methods.
Looks like a bug to me.
I has been reported as such.
Wether it is a technical or 'social/political' bug is another question and I hope it is a technical one. Much easier to solve. ;-)

Who cares? :-) Anyway, the DVD also asked something about a German license. I don't know what it said, if I had to accept it or ignore, whatever. I don't read German, so I accepted it... I posted the text from the zypper session because that is what I have proof of. I'm not going to reinstall from dvd just to make a photo of the license text and show it here... - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
