Description Lorne Shantz 2005-12-08 03:41:52 UTC 
10.1 Alpha 3 installation. I was using an Intel MB #D845PEBT2, P4cpu, Pioneer DVD-ROM ATAPIModel DVD-120S, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive.

During installation, (in my case at disk 3) if you insert the wrong disk on the second try it will hang indefinately. I tried this three times, starting from scratch twice. I also learned that rebooting instead of starting over, does allow it to continue from where it left off. Neat!

This is far too few infos to do anything.
Comment 2 Lorne Shantz 2005-12-10 04:44:35 UTC 
No it is not. All you need to do, is reproduce it yourself. Start the install, and at disk 3, instead of using disk #3, place disk 4, 5 or 2 or 1 instead. then when it says it is wrong, do the wrong disk again. You should see the hang yourself. You do not need logs for this. I have had another user try the same thing on totally different hardware and the exact same thing happened. Why do you act hostile, when I am in good faith attempting to help you track down and fix bugs? I am confused.

I guess it's about yast.

Sorry for closing the bug before. We do need the logs, because you already have them and they can save us the time needed to recreate the bug. http://www.opensuse.org/Bug_Reporting_FAQ#YaST
Please also give more meaningful summaries.

No feedback

No feedback equals no bug?

I found this since I run into something similar but not exactly the same, I
will write another bug report.
