2. When you boot of the disk, BEFORE INSTALLING, make sure that you run the disk verification selection first ... yes, this will take about 45 minutes...but better to "waste" that time than to spend hours upon hours trying to figure out what the problem is if the media has some errors in it. So, just plan on that 45 minutes... use the time to go run an errand or two
In booting from the DVD I never get to the point of seeing any options for disk verification. It stalls in the BIOS at the point where it says it is booting from the DVD. Thanks for the reply
By the time you are trying to boot, it's too late for disk verification. Since you are using k3b to burn the disk, it will automatically burn an iso file correctly, but the iso file has to be good first. md5sum should show up in the k3b window, so all you have top do is compare it with the md5sum from the download site. k3b is a really nice piece of software, and it's hard to go wrong with it, but GIGO! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
