Hi, openSUSE has still some problems with memory limitations and with ZYPP killing the fist stage installation when all logs are stored in memory only - it's sometimes very hard to get them. To reduce the memory limitations or log to a safe place, you can use a new article: http://en.opensuse.org/Logging_YaST_to_USB_Stick_in_Installation or an older one: http://en.opensuse.org/YaST_Remote_Logging_in_Installation To reduce the memory limitations by swapping on a removable device (USB stick), you can use this solution: http://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Installation_with_Little_Memory&redirect=no#Swap_on_Removable_Device Lukas
