OpenSuse 10 Beta 2 - Cannot Find Installation CD - USB CDRom
Last modified: 2005-09-08 11:35:32 UTC
I've got an IBM ThinkPad X40. I booted the first install CD for OpenSuSE (SuSE 10) Beta 2. In the installation program it prompts me that it cannot find the installation CD. Novell Desktop 9 installer suffers from the same problem, but SuSE 9.3 Pro installer works fine. If you guys need further info / files let me know. Nick
System specs: IBM ThinkPad X40 Intel Pentium 4M 1.25gb Ram 40gb IDE HD External IBM USB CD-Rom Nothing else attached to the system.
Yes, we need the YaST2 logs, see: http://www.opensuse.org/index.php/Bug_Reporting_FAQ#YaST
From the description, it seems that linuxrc fails to find the CD with YaST. So its most probably a linuxrc problem. Nicholas, did you see a language selection dialog ? I guess no. Do you have SuSE 9.3 still running on this system ? If yes, please run "hwinfo" and attach its output to this bug.
If it's in linuxrc, does it load usb-storage (check on console 3)? If you continue in manual mode from there on, does it work?
I'm afraid too late ...
