Nothing happens when I try to download from the regular download page. The metalink doesn’t work either. Trying to get the live usb for kde x86_64.
I just checked. It downloaded without any problems here.
That probably doesn’t help you. I assume we are being redirected to different mirrors.
I’ll note that I used “wget” for the sha256 checksum file and gpg signature, and I used the aria2c for the iso itself (that would use the meta link).
Hi
Could also be mirror sync delay… If you go here and on the image you want, click on the details to the right for a local mirror;
http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/
When I tried this from the opensuse.org download page, nothing happened. The download never started. Tonight, I tried the mirrors offered in the previous posts. The link on the page sent me here:
Instead of a file download, I got a cute picture of a tub of popcorn with the message "Sorry, we cannot find your kernels"I’ll try again in the morning.
Hi
Try another mirror… this works http://suse.mobile-central.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-KDE-Live-x86_64-Snapshot20210217-Media.iso
I tried again today. Clicking on the mirror links still didn’t work. Trying to get a look at the page, I right-clicked on the link and selected “open in a new tab.” A tab did not open, but the download began immediately! The download was slow but completed normally. I always use k3b to create DVD iso’s and was surprised to find that a usb drive could not be a destination. So, I downloaded Imagewriter and in minutes had a bootable live version.
Nothing is ever easy. I did all of the above from a laptop. I rebooted, selected the live usb option and it ran smoothly. The reason I wanted the live usb was to help resolve an issue with my desktop. I’m trying to install an ssd in a PCIe slot as a bootable device. (All of this is in another thread.) When I booted the desktop from the live usb, it froze the system. I had to power down, press power again and it shut itself down. Then I powered on again to try to boot from the usb just as I had on the laptop. This time, I selected the failsafe option. It booted smoothly to a command line. I entered “startx” and the GUI came up and the system ran normally. Since I’m snowed in, all this has kept my mind occupied.
