Gentle readers,
yesterday i tried an installation of OpenSuSE Alpha 3, downloaded as CDs the
same day, 32 bit within a VMWare Virtual Infrastructure Server, Version 2.0.1,
Build 40644. I used the predefined settings of SLES 10
1. the default setting of VMWare with LSI Logic SCSI adapter failed to detect
the hard disk, the alternative BusLogic worked flawlessly,
2. the default installation with KDE was terminated by an error, which i cannot
describe more detailed, because the resulting installation could not be brought
up to boot properly ("repair" didn't provide a bootable installation), this was
reliable reproduceable, tried 3 times, root login was impossible (no password
set - which "genius" invented this "security feature" ?!?), didn't try the
rescue system,
3. the vim package produced an error during installation, mentioning a
skriptlet failing,
4. the "other" installation with "text" worked flawlessly, i was able to
install most of the stuff (i didn't try Gnome due to space limitations) after
completing the first minimal installation.
Yours sincerely
Christoph-Erdmann Pfeiler
