I'm upgrading a p4 desktop, 2g ram, from 11.3 to 12.1 with the DVD installation. I've checksummed the disc image and burned two copies. I choose the installation from the boot menu (boot to hard disc is okay) and after hanging on the gecko splash screen for 30 seconds or so, it starts rolling out messages in the form

udevd[##] Timeout: killing /sbin/modprobe xxxx

This goes by too quickly to get the exact details. It continues for a minute or two until I power the computer off.

What's the first thing to check? Maybe I should give it more time to see if it actually continues to Yast, but I should resolve this first.

Any hunches?

As a test, revert from systemd to sysvinit. == from the release notes Booting with systemd or sysvinit By default, openSUSE now boots using systemd. In case of trouble, you can switch back to the old way using sysvinit by pressing the F5 key on the boot. If you want to switch to sysvinit permanently, install the sysvinit-init package. To switch back to systemd, reinstall the systemd-sysvinit package. === Greg -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
