I have a Dell Dimension 8100 (P4, old nvidia card - nothing fancy) at home on which I always run the current SUSE. I tried to install 10.2, but did not get very far. I get the menu to install. No matter which method I choose, the install stops directly after the initial box showing that the kernel is loaded. The screen is blank, and I cannot get to the other virtual terminals to see anything. I tested the DVD in Yast, and it said the media was OK. Any other way I could see what is failing?
Did you try the rescue system, too ? If this fails, try the option pci=noacpi Years ago I had trouble while installing an older version of SuSE. At that time pci=noacpi solved my problem ... Memtest is also worth a try ... -- Never give up ! Best regards / Gruß, Reinhard. "Software is like a parachute.
