Has anyone succedeed installing Opensuse 10.2 in VMWare Workstation? Here it hangs immediately after the boot, even with safe settings.
I've seen these symptoms with one 10.2 machine. Try appending "nosmp" to the boot options (start typing at the bootloader with the installation option selected). Of course it's likely to be an unrelated problem, but worth a try.
I did an install this afternoon, straight install (plus additional packages that I wanted, no problems, ran great under VMware without even installing the VMtools. Did my presentation tonight to the LUG with it running in a VM. Oh, I did this using VM Server, the free version, not Workstation but I wouldn't think that would make a difference. I did tell it that it in creating the VM that it was "Other 2.6 Kernel" rather than SuSE. What version of VM Workstation are you running? VMware on Windows or Linux? Could be hardware configuration too. Clint -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

It worked, but in the middle of disk installation the virtual machine crashed complaining about a "vide" unsupported operation(DVD was the iso image in an ide drive, but HD was SCSI).
