y2log from installation attempt
the problem appears to have something to do with the repositories added during
installation. I selected the opensuse repositories via radio button, and
accepted the defaults, which included both the NON-OSS and OSS repositories
but not the debug repository
The "cannot open Packages index using db3" error may be a red herring. I attempted the same install, this time *without* adding any repositories. I got the same error on the screen but the yast installation did not die. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 394728 *** |
manual installation via ssh. installation gets all the way through to the point where software packages are about to be installed, when yast window dies. Error in login window is: error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - No such file or directory (2) Below is the whole contents of the ssh login window: ------------------------------------------------------ Password: openSUSE Installation Welcome to the inst-sys on 129.43.1.108 2.6.25.4-6-default x86_64 run yast to start the installation inst-sys:~ # yast Probing connected terminal...
