Several errors during actual install, not preparation.
The first few were related to curl, suggesting the download site for repository was not reachable. These I skipped after several retries.
The more concerning ones were of this nature: "Subprocess failed. Error:RPM failed:error:%prein(login_defs-4.81-2.43.noarch) scriptlet failed,exit status 127 error: login_defs-4.81-2.43.noarch:install failed" This is the one I am staring at now, there were several others all RPM related, soe mentioning other packages such as perl.
Ignoring gives a warning about ignoring packages and later verifying system. The install would continue until the next one. After perhaps a dozen of these all different packages some of which seemed critical to a working system, I gave it up.
This is not confidence inspiring. Does this suggest bad download image or some other issue?
Indeed, the first thing to do is check the download image. As you burned to DVD, also check the DVD: there should be a boot option to do just that. https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Download_help -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.3 x86_64 at Telcontar)
