Hello I recently bought an Radeon RX 560 and when switched for my old HD 7750 I wasn’t able to boot with a graphic mode. If I trt to insert a USB with the installer it tells me that I have not enough memory for performing an installation in the graphic mode.
So I changed my HDD as well and thought to do a clean installation of the system, so I re-downloaded the .iso (to avoid damages on the last one) and tried to install, it won’t let me even to boot on the installer, no matter if I use the normal, the “Safe mode”, the “no ACPI” or “no ACPI-local” modes it simply won’t boot.
The rest of my specifications of the system:
-My MoBo is an Asrock N68C-GS FX @3.50 GHz
-My CPU is an FX 6300 six core
-My RAM is 8 GB (two 4 GB sticks (idk the speed)
-My GPU is Sapphire Pulse Radeon RX 560
Please describe in detail what you mean by “won’t boot”. Could it possibly mean it boots, but the screen stays black? If it does, maybe doing what is described at Unable to install Tumbleweed ("No data" screen) - Install/Boot/Login - openSUSE Forums would let you get it installed. It’s a workaround often suggested for situations like yours, before you changed the HD, black screen following a change of video card. Are you able to try with no video card installed, using the onboard VGA port?
Looking at the ASRock specification for that Motherboard, it has an integrated NVIDIA® GeForce 7025 graphic unit …
Are you absolutely sure that, you’ve disabled the integrated graphics?
We’ve seen more reports on AMD GPU’s, and I get the impresssion that they do better on newer kernels, specially > 4.15. What you can do, is download a Tumbleweed Live image, create a USB device from it, and boot from that USB device. We could then check whether the system runs better with the 4.20 kernel TW has. If so, we could help you to add such a newer kernel to the existing Leap install.
