kernel detect which modules to load? I'm just wondering why the installation does not work with 10.1 while it did with 10.0 and even a pretty old 8.0 in a
Yup, I'm wondering, too.
Ok, so I loaded the recommended modules and now the installation does work! *Thank you!*
But it's still a mystery why it doesn't work automatically!
Ok, here's the story. vmware emulates a _CD_ drive, but you attach a _DVD_ iso. The installer notices the DVD iso and constructs a DVD url for the package manager. If the package manager sees a DVD url, it will look only at DVD drives - but vmware only emulates a CD drive. -> No packages. Should already be fixed in 10.2. So, if you notice this again - complain again. :-) Steffen -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
