lol, usb install tried to install to itself

I used 13.2 installer from an 8GB USB stick.
SSD had 46GB / and 46GB /tmp/ previously (from 12.1 install)
It kept wanting to install to the USB stick (I think /dev/sdb3), and use my entire /dev/sda 96GB sdd as only swap!
I booted a live distro, wiped the ssd first MB with /dev/zero, and all went well after that.
Beats me.
It also added the USB install device as an HDD source in yast2 sw_single, which I had to remove, because it complained if I didn’t keep the installer plugged in.
These things could use a little polish, but everything else is rocking so far. I found Packman last week … late to the party, I know.

I’ve seen that happen. Just override what the installer “wants” You do not want or need a /tmp. The default openSUSE install is swap 1-2*memory root 2–30 gig is ext4 format 40-50 gig if BTRFS the rest in home. In any case you don’t have to take the recommended over ride in in advanced/expert mode.

You have an odd set up to begin with I suspect that the installer just got confused.

Yeah, I used that setup for a couple years … it was supposed to be / and /home, d’oh!!! I only noticed when upgrading. Remote terminal, so it didn’t matter.
