Description Chris Ward 2006-02-01 19:34:17 UTC
SuSE Live 9.3 worked well under QEMU; virtual networking was automatically configured and you could use Konqueror to browse the web from a virtual session directly. However SuSE 10 live DVD does not configure the virtual network. 
YaST will configure the card but gives a 'package error' along the way.

You can fetch a QEMU-ised version of SuSE Live DVD from here http://linuxtracker.org/torrents-details.php?id=1335 .

For use under QEMU, it would be handy to have an alternate kernel on the live DVD (selectable by isolinux.cfg) without the 1000Hz 'tick'; top interrupt rate of 100Hz would be good, or possibly even slower. There is plenty of space on the DVD to allow this

Actually it's Torsten.

The openSuse 10.2 Live DVD is discontinued in favour of a general-purpose solution based on the kiwi imaging system <http://kiwi.berlios.de/> Please reevaluate against the current version, reopen as necessary and assign to the current maintainer(s).
Comment 6 Torsten Duwe 2008-01-02 14:08:44 UTC
Feel free to reopen if the issue persists with the current version.
