I am still working with Leap 15.4 and tried to install Leap 15.6. Following the standard procedure (on July 29) I burnt the Offline-image with k3b and started the installation with option "Installation". The installation process stopped at the message "[ end Kernal Panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exit code=0x00000004 ]", with the CAPS-lock LED flashing! The same happened today (July 31), with a second (different) download of the Offline-image but using a USB-stick instead of a DVD. Also, I tried the network-image, with the same negative result
What is wrong, what should I do get Leap 15.6 installed?
It seems that the kernel in 15.6 is not compatible with your machine. You would have to see the verbose boot messages to try to find what is the exact problem, and then maybe there is an option to get pass that point. Or report the issue in Bugzilla. Maybe try to boot the media in safe mode; this should be an option in the boot menu. You could try to upgrade to 15.5 instead. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.5 x86_64 at Telcontar)
