I'm quite new to the Linux world, and am trying to install SUSE 10.2 on a new machine, with no success. My setup is:
Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 1GB Memory 320GB SATA2 HDD Gigabyte 956 MoBo with P965 + ICH8R GeForce 7600GT 256MB Video ASUS DVD Burner DRW-1612BL The HD is partitioned into 2, with an xp partition initially installed. When I boot from the SUSE DVD, all seems fine, and I get the installation menu onscreen. When I select the installation option, however, after a moment, the system returns that it was either unable to locate the SUSE Installation DVD, or that it was unable to mount the DVD. I have tried all of the other installation options, including text only, however these just simply hang with a black screen. I am confident that the DVD device is ok, as it runs perfectly under xp, and also installed Ubuntu last week. I also know that the DVD media is fine, as the disc works perfectly in my Thinkpad, and starts the installation. Some reading around suggests that there may be an issue with the ICH8R, but I have been unable to find a patch or work around. Any suggestions?
