This may have changed but IIRC, installation over WiFi is/was not recommended. In the past, I did it anyway and ended up with an unusable installation. So I started over with a wired connection. That worked. YMMV, Jeffrey Quoting Thorolf Godawa <nospam@godawa.de>:
Hi everybody,
I'm trying to install openSUSE 13.1 on a ThinkPad X60s (CoreDuo, Intel 950 graphics, Intel 3945ABG wifi, SanDisk 128GB SSD).
The installation goes through mostly fine, all hardware is detected correctly but I'm not able to establish a wifi-connection (shows SSIDs fo available APs, but does not get an IP), so I went for cable to finish the installation including all updates.
On next reboot, it takes quite long (>60s) to go over the Grub showing the boot menu and the system is not booting into runlevel 5 at all, last message seen is "Started SuSEfirewall2 phase 2".
I can change to an other console, after connecting a cable I have working network and I can start XFCE4 manually from there.
I can get over the "Started SuSEfirewall2 phase 2" if I switch the network from NetworkManager to ipup, but then I'm not able to get a Wifi connection anymore (only SSIDs viewable, but no IP-connection).
Finally the system shutdown takes too long it shows "Started Show Plymouth Power Off Screen" (after pressing ESC) for about 90s and then shuts down very fast.
Any ideas for this?
I'm using 13.1, because it should be a "evergreen" version, while I was a SuSE user for long time, I stopped using it some time ago, because I was not willing to do frequent distribution upgrades, so "evergreen" seems to be a good option for me. --
kind regards,
