[opensuse-factory] installation delay

I have encountered the problem on the following 3 ISOs KDE Live x86_64 20140904 DVD Media x86_64 20140909 KDE Live x86_64 20140915 In all cases the installation proceeds normally until it reaches grub installation. In the first case above of KDE Live I accidentally found out how to complete the installation - by hitting the abort button and waiting for about 10-15 minutes for the installer to respond and then choosing to continue. The install continues successfully. I have rebooted and updated to make sure all is well. In the case of the DVD Media snapshot I was unable to get a response from the abort button and powered off the machine. The latest KDE Live 20140915 also installs correctly after the same 10 - 15 minute wait My first experience with the Factory install DVD was in August and that had no extended delay during bootloader installation.Unfortunately I have deleted that ISO so I cannot say for sure what the snapshot release number was. There has been on change in my hardware since the August install. Bug 789604 from a 13.1 milestone has a similar title to the current difficulty but it seems to have been resolved. I can't see any other similar bugs of recent vintage but apart from posting on a regular forum I'm new to this mailing list and bugzilla Thanks -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Check your bios config, see if it says that you have a floppy drive. If it says yes, but you do not have one, disable. http://susepaste.org/69473463 - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

Today I installed the 20140918 KDE Live Snapshot and had the same wait at the bootloader install section. I was concentrating on getting yaST logs for bugzilla when I looked up and noticed the installer had completed on its own after about fifteen minutes.

I guess this might be mkinitrd/dracut-related. mkinitrd/dracut outputs log messages as it goes, but even zypper does not display them until it has fully completed. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
