Hello, After installation from openSUSE-KDE-LiveCD-x86_64-Build0135-Media.iso it does NOT boot at all from the hard disk. Question: It seems I have NO initrd-3.6.0-1-desktop file installed , How can I install it [to the hard disk] from the livecd install process?. Thanks Glenn Content of following are listed.
