...I was able to boot the Leap 15 installation DVD if I selected F5 and Safe Settings. I now need to find out exactly what this sets...
On vtty2: # cat /proc/cmdline apm=off acpi=off mce=off barrier=off ide=nodma idewait=50 i8042.nomux psmouse.proto=bare irqpoll pci=nommconf initrd=initrd splash=silent systemboot=1
Will you please explain what you were running when you entered vtty2?
Boot installation media F5 Select safe settings Wait for installation GUI to paint the screen Ctrl-Alt-F2 # cat /proc/cmdline
Thanks. I thought so, but I thought I was the only one left using DVD install media:-)
It is the same with USB install media. Also, you should be able to edit the settings on boot, remove one of those settings, then boot. If it works well, reboot and repeat, but this time taking out two settings. Repeat until you find the one that breaks: ie, till you find one that make the install to fail when removed. Then reboot removing all the other settings but that one that is really needed, and tell here which one it is. If you are not lucky, it would be more than one setting to keep. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
