Issue#2: where / how do I change network settings?
I can configure it manually w/ip(link,addr) and can ping my host system, but don't know where to add changes to make that permanent.
YaST?
--- Issue#3 -- I don't seem to be able to see any packages to install from the CD.
If you installed from CD, there are none. On the DVD, yes.
I can enter yast and it gave errors trying to refresh the online packages, but no packages from the DVD.
Is it CD or is it DVD what you used for the installation?
On boot, I see [FAILED] Failed to start LVM2 PV scan on device 8:4. See 'systemctl status lvm2-pvscan@8:4.service' for details. ... [..] A start job is running for dev-Data-Home.device (90 secs...)
----- How do I terminate a wait?
Stupid timeout... a local device should never take 90 seconds.
*sigh*...
It indicates that there is some other basic problem.
Oh.. the info shows that none of the modules are loaded.
... fixed that... hmmm...(this is one reason why I generally use my own kernel
Modules load instantly here, as soon as needed. If they are not loaded, there is some other problem.
I'm running low on energy ...
Are you trying to use your own customizations, or are you leaving everything to designed defaults?
This is supposed to be the stable release?
No. It is Tumbleweed, aka Factory. Considerable effort is done at automated testing, but it is not human tested by the community till people install each release, and it changes weekly or even daily, so no, I don't consider it stable. Leap is stable. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
