Description Michael Scherer 2005-09-22 07:34:52 UTC 
When installing via VNC and choosing "text-mode" as package-selection, the
needed stuff to start VNC after the first boot (to finish the installation)
aren't selected automagically.

What happens is that after the CD1-packages are installed, the system boots,
tries to start the VNCserver which doesnt work and then tries to boot the rest
of the system which partly works.

Problem is that you can't login, cause no accounts are setup and root is denied
also.

just tried with RC4, works after reboot 
 
but: when i come to add the user (after confirming that my password is 
unsecure) it freeze/kill the vnc server.

Jiri, please, investigate why it hangs.
Comment 4 Jiří Suchomel 2005-09-29 09:02:49 UTC 
Martin, could you reproduce it?
Before you confirm user creation, could you please turn on verbose logging
(using Shift-F7 combination) and attach new logfile?

Comment 6 Jiří Suchomel 2005-09-29 16:16:38 UTC 
uhm - the last log is not from system hanged in users confiuration, is it? It
ends with the release notes dialog...
Comment 7 Martin Lasarsch 2005-09-29 23:46:54 UTC 
yes .. sorry my comment was ignored. 
 
i tried vnc installation 2 times, the first time it hangs at the internettest, 
the 2nd time the last thing i saw was suseconfig after added the user.  
 
logifle is from the 2nd installation.
Comment 8 Jiří Suchomel 2005-10-13 09:30:58 UTC 
Jiri, do you have any idea? It seems to hang in several stages, not only during
users config...
Comment 9 Jiri Srain 2005-10-31 11:30:19 UTC 
No, I have no clue what causes this problem. The internet-test seems that it could be caused by network restart, but I have no clue what void can be performed after the users configuration.
Comment 10 Jiří Suchomel 2006-02-17 14:51:58 UTC 
please test again with 10.1
