Could you, please, try to attach YaST logs? See: http://en.opensuse.org/Bug_Reporting_FAQ#YaST thanks Created attachment 72590 [details]
Pictures of the Screen Step by Step, showing clearly what happened with the BUG reported. Kernel Information also Avaluable.
The information you asked I cannot give you. The command shift-F8 (from the link you offered) doesn't work! The command save?*? also doesn't work. Using ctrl-alt-f5 I entered /var/log/YaST2 as you asked, but there was no file inside this folder! I added a lot of information in the pictures above. I showed all screens I got during installation process, and also some kernel and modules loading informations. I hope that can clear what is going on here and some solution comes up. If you need anything else, AFTER taking a look at these pictures please ask me, but as I said, the steps offered in the link you posted aren't working here. I'll need something else. snwint: see the pictures, please, is that a known bug? Kernel? whatever? Alisson: try to run the installation with `acpi=off` on the command line, or just try "Installation--ACPI disabled" or "Installation--Safe Settings", please. Thanks looks like a kernel problem, look at pictures 11 and 12. I think irqpoll is the option to try. Hi. As you asked for, I booted the DVD, pressed F3 (other options), and in the space for BOOT OPTIONS I typed: "Installation--ACPI disabled" and in another boot time "Installation--Safe Settings" without the " ". THe same problem happened both times. A mistake ---- I said I entered command line (something like this: " > " ), during installation, to access /var/log/YaST2, by pressing ctrl-alt-F5, but that's not true. I've pressed ctrl-alt-F9. That's the only one that offers me a command line. The Yast program runs on ctrl-alt-F1 as you must know. And in this command line that I get many commands don't work, and the command you asked me to type on the command line "acpi=off" didn't return anything (command not found). Aren't you guys experiencing any alike problem with these x86-64 DVD image of suse 10.0? Is it only me? The 32 bits Yast works perfectly here... It just says that I'm trying to install a 32 bits O.S. under a 64 bits computer, and asks if I want to continue. Thank you all again. Did you try booting with irqpoll? This is an option to the kernel boot prompt (the very first graphical screen you see). Press escape, and then type irqpoll in the prompt field. I've solved the problem. I think it's a kernel problem. The YAST stops accessing the DVD-ROM as I said... !!God knows why!!... after the boot and the kernel is loaded (ordinary installation option).. That same problem, for example, don't happen with WindowsXP and a few linux distros I've tried. Anyway... I looked at my SETUP options... For each driver you can choose, cd-rom, AUTO, not installed, and one more option I don't remember. The option I had choosed for my CD-rom was AUTO... There's no problem with that... And I can use/boot/install any operation system, read cd-rom, etc etc that I want with no problems, except Suse. So, I just changed AUTO to CD-ROM at the setup and everything now works just fine... A strange solution but that solved the problem. Thank you all. |
