Woahh! :-O
That is strange indeed. An extended (container) partition as bootable. Right now, I wouldn't know how to handle that. I simply do not know.
The REALLY STRANGE part is that the installation went just fine! I have been trying to get the mouse working for a couple of weeks, .. rebooting MANY times with no problem at all.

Notice that you have about half of the disk unused (15013..30401), and due to the strange positioning of sda2 and sda3, it has to go to sda4, all of it.
Yep, .. eventually that will be a separate partitions for VMs. Now, if 'Repair System' would only work (it's 15 minutes & counting since I had to reboot). TFTR! Lee -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
