I've just downloaded 15.3 and am making a USB install stick. With a 500/20 Mb Internet connection, writing the USB stick is taking much longer than the download.
I noticed one undesirable "feature". I ran the media check on the USB stick and immediately after successful completion, it started the installation process, even before I had a chance to select upgrade. When media check is selected, that's all it should do and then go back to the menu, where install, upgrade or nothing may be selected.
You are aware that if you really care and want it to be improved you need to open bug report, are not you?
Actually, it's a bit more than that. The media check in Yast can check ISOs and DVDs, but not USB sticks. It seems these days, checking those is more useful than checking spinning media. It's been quite a while since the last time I burned a DVD for anything, let alone an install disc.
That YaST can not check USB sticks but doesn't know it is checking an USB stick is known for decades. It seems that adding that feature is very difficult or impossible. I hope that the text says clearly that it is a DVD test thing. If it doesn't (I do not know) it is a bug you should report. That it starts the installation without asking is a different and new bug which you have to report, as the discoverer. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.2 x86_64 at Telcontar)
