Skip graphical welcome-message of SL/SLES 10
Hi, how can I skip the graphical preboot welcome-message (with all the different languages) of SL 10.1/SLES 10rc1? Unfortunately this hangs the HVM-Xen-installation so that I'm not able to install SuSE Linux as HVM-guest on the system! Thanks a lot, -- Chau y hasta luego, Thorolf

Activate caps lock before it is displayed. If this doesn't help, additionally hold shift while booting. Please add a comment to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=166930 or open a new bugreport if you think your problem is different.

Hi,
Activate caps lock before it is displayed. If this doesn't help, additionally hold shift while booting. I'll try this if I've finished the SL installation for a domU I'm doing into directory right now.
Please add a comment to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=166930 or open a new bugreport if you think your problem is different. It's mostly the same error but it happens on VT-hardware with Xen when I try to install SL 10.1 or SLES 10.0 as HVM-guest!
I had this error already during beta-status of SL and SLES on a Intel Bensley-system (Xeon dual-cpu, dual-core, AM64T, HT, VT) and now on a Intel Pentum D 930 with SL 10.1 and SELS 10.0RC1! If I find time I'll also will create a bugzilla-account for me to put my comment there, but right now I have to finish my work first! -- Chau y hasta luego, Thorolf
Hi,
Activate caps lock before it is displayed. If this doesn't help, additionally hold shift while booting. I tried this but it's quite hard to get pressed the key(s) during the very short period the VM-BIOS is shown but I think I was fast enough several times. Anyway it didn't help!
Now I tried to make an installation directly with Qemu 0.81 (the Qemu-version in Xen is quite old) and there it works. I also get the green lines on the top of the screen and the rest is white, but only for a second, then comes the "international welcome preboot-screen" and after that the boot-menu! So it seems that my problem is more Xen, specificly Qemu-related! -- Chau y hasta luego, Thorolf

See bug 175473. There is presently a limitation in the Xen guest when running on Intel VMX ('Vanderpool'). Steffen
