I reported a bug for M5 which needs more info, but I didn't get any response regarding how to mount my usb during install so I can copy over log files. If anyone who knows the answer helps me, I should be able to get the required info for the report. My question is copied below:

How do I mount a usb during install? When I press Shift+F8, the save file dialog appears but my hard drive and my usb stick do not appear.

Hi, the easiest way is type ctrl+alt+f2 (or just alt+f2 depends on way you install), create directory in /tmp like `mkdir /tmp/usb` and then mount it (depends on number of your discs) mount /dev/sdb1 /tmp/usb (if you have just one disc) and usb is mounted under /tmp/usb. Josef

Use fdisk -l to locate the device name of the usb device, not sure if hwinfo is available in the installation system, but hwinfo --usb will give more info. There's also cat /proc/partitions Regards Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
