So i used LILI to put that iso file onto a 8 gb sony flash hard drive.and i booted from the flash hard drive. I choose installation. I get a black screen with white stuff written onto it. And that quickly disappears. Then another black screen which also quickly disappears. Then a plant and a chameleon on it. The they booth get greener and greener until they stop. Then after about 20 seconds. I get a black screen saying alot of things are that the pc will reboot in 120 seconds. I do not know what that is. And i have no way of copying that. What do you guess? how can that be fixed?
That’s a kernel panic you’ve seen. A couple of questions/remarks
- Did you verify the download?
- How did you write the iso to disk? If you have linux, use dd, if you have Windows, use imagewriter.
Verify what in the download O.O?
I have a linux pc and a windows pc. I used the windows pc with LILI Which i used with ubuntu before with great success

Download page. Read the paragraphs labeled “Verify your download before use”

I have no idea what LILI is.

If you run the check media option - is it OK
What is the media check option? Sorry but i am a newbie
New edit: the file i downloaded is openSUSE-12.3-KDE-Live-i686.iso

boot from the media then instead of selecting Installation, select
“Check Installation Media”, like you see here:
http://tinyurl.com/b856ekd
but, before you make the installation media you should make sure you
have a good download by doing what it said here:

dd

If i try to do the check installation media. I the same thing happens as when i press installation. But the last black screen has much less writing in it. Something like half what was written
Try some of the F3 options
When i choose the no kms thing. and check installation media. I get 1 black screen. Then writes some stuff Then dots appear as if something is loading Then the usual will reboot in 120 sec message
With the text thing option and check installation media. The screen goes dark and the computer shuts down.
OK
So what can you tell us about your hardware?
You mentioned Ubuntu… Did that work/install? Do you still have it installed?
I made a thread in the hard ware section in which i mention all my hardware. it is called acer aspire 6920
And yes i still have it installed. It installed easily in about 20 mins

you do it anyway you want to, but i’d recommend that you make helping
you as easy for the helper as you can…all the helpers here are
volunteers…not getting paid one dime…why not instead of telling
one to go and look up another thread–without even giving a URL to
make it easy on the helper, like:
http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/hardware/485523-acer-aspire-6920-a.html#post2544564
i mean, how long would it take you to type: “acer aspire 6920, 4 GB
ram, core 2 duo, geforce 9500M GS”
but, if you want to make it easy on yourself, go ahead.
on the other hand, have a look here:

Oh.
I’m not sure if that will help or cause problems instead.

Anyone knows the problem with my pc. I provided the output
Maybe LILI is the problem? (don’t know, haven’t ever used it…)
So that means, you have the KDE LiveCD image?
That should just work if you copy it to the USB stick using dd from the command line.
Or use SUSE ImageWriter for copying if you prefer a GUI.
