Net image may lack USB storage and/or file systems support until all this is loaded from network.

Отправлено с iPhone No, that's not it, I've checked - USB storage is fine (/dev/sda) and the file system (JFS) too. It looks as if linuxrc simply doesn't know a) that I want to use an ISO image or 2) how to access the image (loop-mount etc).

The network hardware (RTL8723) is not supported, which is why I'm installing from an ISO.

Did you try to specify instsys parameter which says where installation system comes from? By default it tries to load it from default install source which is network.

I need a second pair of eyes, I just can't make this work.

I'm booting the NET iso from an SD card, and I want to install from an ISO image on a USB drive. AFAICT, this ought to be sufficient:

install=hd:/openSUSE-13.2-DVD-i586.iso

Doesn't work though - what am I missing? The ISO is on sda1 which is mounted and accessible. Once I return to the installers linuxrc, it keeps asking about a repo, not an ISO.
