At the boot menu there's an Installation option, I pick that but I end up at a GNOME desktop and nothing happens. Under Activities there's no install options. Is there a way to manually launch the installer?
The live CDs no longer have a working installer on them - the 'Installation' entry in the boot menu is no longer functional and we're in progress of removing it.
Please either use the NET installer or the DVD.

_< When live installer's packages will be completely unusable on TW I guess
What a giant "fuck you" to anyone trying to use TW for live projects. Why do you even have susestudio still ? Although, I see that TW is already missing from there. Personally, I used live installer for years to install Suse on any desktop PC that needed GNU/Linux on it. But default software selection and settings of TW are quite crappy, so I have to make custom builds (like, there still no not-hardcoded-in-DE Bluetooth GUI and that "wicked" garbage appeared now, just when NM stopped being a complete mess ! and pulseaudio, goddamn pulseaudio !). And the only problem with installer was that it failed once with nonsensical error on BTRFS root that it itself has created (fixed by not using BTRFS). Which is not a surprise with all epic BTRFS issues which are more suitable for some experimental out-of-tree alpha-code. Like its free-space exhaustion, inability to repair itself under r/o mount (which in combination with the lack of repair functionality in initrd forces one to use a live build) and need for btrfsmaintenance crutch cron-jobs that are not enabled by default in Suse, last time I checked. I would ask "why ?!" but you all have already previously clearly expressed how little of a shit you give for out-of-the-box usefulness of TW and user builds... that's that, fuck those >10 years that I use Suse.
