[opensuse] can't install 12.2
I have opensuse 12.2 on a dvd from Linux Format magazine issue DVD 164 and am trying to install on a ThinkPad T60 without sucess. 1- keep getting error 1008 and 3030 when suse tries to format the drive. 2- I keep ignoring this error and finally, it starts the installation but locks up sometimes, running out of space, 50GB on laptop. 3- Why can't I select a partition that I formatted using kde partition manager? 4- If I use all the default settings, suse sets the root part 16GIG and the remaining space for the home part, on my laptop, 50GB, on my tower over 500GB. 5- Is there a way to select my own formated partition, suse insists to format partitions and I continue to get error 1008 and 3030. I installed many distros on this laptop and never get those errors when I format and chose what partition to install. jozien17 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Sure. Don't use the automated partitioning selection, use manual. Or expert, or whatever it is called. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
