I'm trying to install 10.3 on a 4-year old 32-bit machine. I don't do enough installs to remember all the gotchas, so it's always a fraught process if anything goes wrong :(
I blew a 10.3 DVD, verified it and ran the installer. It all went happily and eventually started installing the packages so I went home and left it to it. This morning I came in to find Missing operating system on the screen. Which means it's messed up the MBR? I had a poke in the BIOS but don't see anything that looks odd. So I put the DVD back in and selected Repair Installed System Now it says: An error occurred during the installation What an incredibly irritating message! I know an error occurred, that's why I asked it to repair the system! I went to the opensuse site but haven't found any useful installation troubleshooting guides. Can anybody point me to one, please? Or any relevant threads on the list. Oh yes, the video. When it starts booting, and up until the point where you choose install or repair or rescue etc, the video is fine. After that point it switches into some mode that isn't handled properly with flickering characters etc. It's a rage 128 pro graphics card, nothing fancy and old enough that there shouldn't be any bugs left. So what's going on there? So I'm not impressed by the 10.3 installation process so far. Cheers, Dave -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
