My Partition-Table

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:16.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/16.0

At initial Installation of OpenSuSe 13.1 RC 1, the installation process freezes at system analysis "Search for Linux Partitions" (60%).

No progress for 10 minutes.

Reproduced it 2 Times.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Installation with DVD-iso-image (standalone PC - no network other than Internet)
2a. Tried it with German locales
2b. Tried it with English (Default) locales (should not have an impact, but anyhow)
3. Waiting for system analysis to complete for 10 minutes

Actual Results:  
Installation progress freezed.

Work around: Select "abort" (installation), after a few seconds DVD-player woke up and regular Pop-Up Window showed up "Do you really want to abort ?"; if saying "No" the freeze got skipped, all other analysis-items were clean; go on with installation then possible.

Expected Results:  
System Analysis works without freezing.

Provided now my y2log at installation time. Sorry for taking so long, but needed some how-to-do-this-support first. 

Cheers Philipp

Some commands, e.g. blkid, mdadm and btrfs, take very long. Looks a lot
like bug #846001.

Yep, let's close as dup.  If the problem is seen even with a workaround for bogus floppy, please reopen or report back.  Thanks.
