Boot OpenSuSE from CD or CD/IsoLinux
by peter.reiner＠hallesche.de 11 Aug '05

11 Aug '05

Hi List, small problem. I didn't like the grub of openSuSE, because didn't start w2k any more, i know that's another issue, but my Slackware installation wasn't shown, too. Now I want to start up my openSuSE installation from the CD, but there's a problem, the messages say that /proc can not by mountet. I assumed to start the installation over the boot parameters of isolinux, but no chance. any ideas. goal is, put the bootloader for openSuSE in its root directory an extract via dd. thanks in advance. kindly regards peter Mit freundlichen Grüßen Peter Reiner (Durchwahl -2635) HALLESCHE Krankenversicherung auf Gegenseitigkeit Direktion Reinsburgstr. 10, 70178 Stuttgart Telefon +49 (0)711/6603-0, Fax +49 (0)711/6603-290 service(a)hallesche.de www.hallesche.de Zum 7.

No, no, no. Sorry I'm not making it clearer. In the dialog box that appears for the keyboard shortcut of the Run Command, Alt+F2, when you use Alt+down-arrow to scroll the history list of commands you've run and you choose one (highlight, press enter) it appears in the Run Command input box. With KDE 3.4.0 and earlier that command would run "right now". With KDE 3.4.1 and later it halts and allows you to edit the line for typos or extra parameters, etc. You have to hit enter a second time to actually run the command. Stan

Hi I'm installing SUSE Linux 10 Beta 1 (which is looking good) and I would like to make a new YaST2 theme that will match the Ximian-look of GNOME. How would I go about this? Is there any documentation or can anyone give me some hints on what to do? Thanks Seb Payne

bug 102945 and versioning?
by jdd 11 Aug '05

11 Aug '05

I was asking for a versioning system. For example. I see in "most annoying bug" a problem about not beeing able to configure the second net card (fixed). I have two net cards and had no problem to configure any of them. is that I have a post -fix version or the bug don't affect me? in what version is the fix available? (may be the bug was fixed before the public release) thanks jdd -- pour m'écrire, aller sur: http://www.dodin.net http://valerie.dodin.net http://arvamip.free.fr
