Installation Logs

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:7.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/7.0

Installation hangs -
after YaST2 is started the installation does not make any progress 
( used cputime on my system approximate 4 min ) 

I can boot this system, but there was no boot record written,
no user have been setup. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install openSUSE on an Opteron 275 system with NVIDIA NVS 275
2.
3.


Expected Results:  
Successful installation.

Are you still running the installer under X or are you back on the console when this occurs? If the latter happens, can you check the Xorg logs whether X has segfaulted?

Sorry for the delay - I was on holiday.
Hope the attached file helps you.

Sorry, I do not understand when did this happen: really on the start of the installation, just after the boot? Did you see any of YaST screens?

Or was it actually installed, but the installation is not complete?
Comment 4 Forgotten User Udskk56uJ3 2011-10-18 07:10:54 UTC
Your second statement is correct -

I am able to boot the installed system and get to the login screen
but I am not able to login 

I had a look at /etc/passwd but no 
USER "winfrid" was set up
