Hello there!

I'm trying to install SuSE 10.2 on an iMac G3 Bondi Blue. Everything works fine (fast, responsive) until I get to the Installation Summary screen. Then it runs un-godly slow (it takes like 2 minutes for it to respond to a mouse movement). I can get to the disk partitioner, but that runs even slower!

So, I'm just looking for a way to speed it up so I can try SuSE! Is there a text installer option (as opposed to a graphic one)?

Thanks.

Yes. Use "Installation - Safe Settings" and it should give you the text mode. Otherwise, pass the parameter "textmode=1" to the bootloader.
