What I wanted to say was - running 'yast', you get the ncurses interface regardless of the DISPLAY setting, with YaST2 you get the GUI when DISPLAY is set, but it defaults to 'yast' when there is no DISPLAY.
Very likely, and if we look at this error message, it is indeed written "YaST2" in the upper-left corner of the terminal screen. However, I have to reiterate that whereas is has proven possible to get this version recognize the disk (albeit not partition it) no such thing was possible through yast2.
Honestly, yast and yast2 are one and the same, they only differ in the interface. I still think you've got a hardware issue - when you can show us dmesg output similar to this: sd 11:0:0:0: [sdc] 976773168 512-byte hardware sectors (500108 MB) sd 11:0:0:0: [sdc] Write Protect is off sd 11:0:0:0: [sdc] Mode Sense: 38 00 00 00 sd 11:0:0:0: [sdc] Assuming drive cache: write through sd 11:0:0:0: [sdc] 976773168 512-byte hardware sectors (500108 MB) sd 11:0:0:0: [sdc] Write Protect is off sd 11:0:0:0: [sdc] Mode Sense: 38 00 00 00 sd 11:0:0:0: [sdc] Assuming drive cache: write through every time you plug the disk in, then we can start looking at other problems, but without that, the disk is indeed not being recognized by your system. /Per -- Per Jessen, Zürich (24.1°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
