Description Heiko Rommel 2013-03-08 14:05:31 UTC 
During installation I saw the following issues:

With two nics (one WLAN, one Ethernet) no configuration proposal is made in yast2. This is quite different from older distributions (inkl. SLE) where at least one (if not both) were proposed to do DCHP.

When selecting the Ethernet device and configuring it for DHCP and finishing the installation I have no network afterwards. Only when manually restarting the network (I used the traditional 'rcnetwork restart' for that) the network would come up correctly.

Heiko,

 It works fine for me, is it just finish the installation, not reboot, if so the NetworkManager is still started, it'll use ifup mode, when you reboot, it use NM.

 Could you describe more about you issue, how to reproduce it? Thanks!

In my case Networker Manager was not used. 

The proposal I got in yast2 (when using a DVD-based install and the GNOME selection) was to use traditional network mode.

Reassign to installation team.

It seems as duplicate of bnc#808039 to me. That bug was fixed already, but after OpenSUSE 12.3 release.
