Stick a floppy in the drive and it stops the complaining and the freeze, not really a freeze, but a loooong wait. This has been a SuSE feature since about 8.1 or 8.2. once it sees any floppy it's happy.
Thank you. I'll definately remember that next time around.
I can't get 9.2 installed on the A7N8X-E mobo, it bdoesn't like my 9.1 drive and can't mount it. The 9.0 drive is fine, but I use that as backup for stuff on my other boxes. I can dive into VC 02 and manually mount it, but that doesn't help. I had the same problem on my x86_64 laptop, but after a few hours trying, something kicked it into life
What I ended up doing was installing onto another hard drive and then copying everything over to my SATA drive after install was complete (and I had replaced the kernel with a standard 2.6.9 kernel). If it can't mount your drive, I'm guessing it's SATA as well?
That would hugely upset some of us who need the devel packages.
Well, that's the problem. They didn't include them at all on the cds. That's why I'm saying they should include another cd with the rest of the devel packages. Don't include a package and just leave out the devel package.
