YaST trying to install ppc.rpm on x86
I opened up YaST Software Management to install pwgen. It complained that it failed to install pwgen...ppc.rpm I have a honest x86_32. What made YaST think that it should have anything to do with ppc? I hesitate to file a bug because the Software Management is still quite broken. I'll try specifically the same thing in beta5.

It's a known "feature" ;-) https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=151933 Regards, Christian Boltz --

And should be fixed with the current FACTORY - which is on our server since 2 hours and finding it's way to the mirrors... I did today a successfull install from FACTORY on x86-64 without any extra i386 (besides those that do not exist for x86-64) or ppc packages on it ;-) Installation is still not in a good shape but we're through the worst now - at least that's what I want to believe ;-) Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

No i586 and x86_64 packages here on PPC :-)
Installation is still not in a good shape but we're through the worst now - at least that's what I want to believe ;-)
I still had a 1.6G swap used at the end of the factory install, but it's still much better than 2G and crashing as was the case a week ago :-) Bye, -- CzP http://peter.czanik.hu/
