I've tried two main boards already: ECS A780GM Gigabyte GA-MA78GM None can install and boot SuSE with success. I've tried Alpha 2 &3. I can't try factory becuse: 1) There's no install ISO 2) There's no network boot ISO (tried 10.3 mini and giving it the factory repo, that doesnt work. Install GUI wont even load) 3) Can't get any version of SuSE to install and run, so cant update to factory that way. The furthest I've gotten is install SuSE 11.0 A3 (if I use the default partition scheme with extended partitions it gives an error when it trys to partition) and then get the bootloader screen. When I select to boot into SuSE it just hangs with 3 or 4 lines on the screen. I think these are the normal parameters that are always passed to the Kernel upon boot... there is no error message. FWIW on the Gigabyte board with SATA mode in BIOS set to "AHCI" I can boot 10.3 installer and it sees the Maxtor drive I had installed at the time, but I did not attempt to go any further. So if you could please tell me exactly what logs you want and how to obtain them I'd be glad to provide them. I also have the error message 11.0 A3 installer gives when trying to create an extended partition (as a picture) so please let me know how to submit that as well.

Is the new ATI 780G chipset supposed to work (sound, RAID, LAN & graphics) under any current OpenSuSE alpha? If not what needs to be done to have that support added before final release?

Last time, I asked that you post the specifics of what exactly did not work, and any kernel log files from any errors.

Can you please do this? To the list, not directly to me.

thanks,
