Hellow All openSUSE User

My PC

GIGABYTE GA-F2A88X-UP4 Rev3.0 BIOS F5b
AMD A10-7700K
A-DATA DDR3-1866 4GB x2
Sapphire RADEON HD 7750 GDDR5 1GB
Western Digital WD10EZEX 1.0TB x2
A88X Onboard RAID 0
Creative Lab SoundBlaster X-Fi XtreamGamer

Windows 7 Professional SP1 JPN clean install completed
But openSUSE 13.1 x86_64 cannot install from DVD

“Found a Linux console terminal on /dev/console (160 columns x64 lines)
cursor blink blink blink…”

What is this?

I know kernel 3.12 support A10-7xxx at first
Do I have to wait openSUSE 13.2 x86_64?
It is a long long long time as eternal

sorry my poor english

Hi
If you go through the function keys, eg ctrl+alt+F4 through F12 (F1 to
get back to install screen), you should see a kernel log showing what
it’s doing when it stops.

Hi
So you got a kernel oops… you would need to raise a bug on that I
would guess, not sure if direct to kernel.org or openSUSE. My guess
would be direct to kernel.org.

When the installation disc boots up to the menu, select a boot option of “nomodeset” and then proceed with the install.

Post install, upgrade your kernel to the latest from the kernel:stable repo.

After that, remove the nomodeset boot option from grub.

(optionally: you may want to upgrade the xorg and mesa components to the latest “stable” versions via the appropriate repo too … on the one hand, there are some significant changes that will greatly improve the graphics experience for your adapter … on the other hand, there is a bug (which appears to operate randomly) in the latest versions affecting GL abilities (and which will impact desktop effects and what not).

Hellow Tyler_k

I tried install with nomodeset
But I have same problem yet
I cannot install

I tried install under 2 situations

1.Use only iGPU no other GPU on motherboard -> negative

2.Use SATA AHCI mode not FakeRAID 0 -> negative

Thanks

#7

Okay. Have you tried a live CD/DVD? What about a distro with a more recent kernel (like Gears on Gallium (an openSUSE based derivative, which is built with all the latest graphics components), or Fedora (or Fedora derivative like Korora))?

In your troubleshooting, I’d suggest just concentrate your testing with getting the system to work with the APU … once you’re successful with that, then add in the additional complexity.

Else, I’d do as Malcolm suggested and (first look for) and then file (if need be) a bug report.

Hellow Tyler_K

I use Official x86_64 Install DVD download from

http://ftp.riken.jp/Linux/opensuse/distribution/13.1/iso/openSUSE-13.1-DVD-x86_64.iso

Why do I chose openSUSE not any other distribution?

Then opnSUSE Install DVD can detect FakeRAID Partition of AMD Chipset without
difficult setting or configuration

It is very user friendly
It is very important

Now I have install problem but I am thankful to all people participate in openSUSE

Sorry my poor english

I tried update Motherboard BIOS/UEFI latest Beta F5c

openSUSE 13.1 x86_64 Install DVD can boot without problem

Select Language,Keyboard,Timezone…
But cannot detect FakeRAID 0 Partition
Of course I know kernel 3.11 does not support A10-7xxx APU officialy

Thanks

#10

I certainly reads like you’re making some progress! lol!

Can’t help you with the fake raid though. Good luck with getting it working. Please keep us informed.

#11

Hi
Likewise, have no experience with the fake raid. I would have to ask though what applications your running on Windows 7, if it’s not video intensive, then I would look at running windows 7 in a virtual machine? Else there is always crossover office from codeweavers?

I set my PC Dual OS booting system Windows and Linux with motherboard FakeRAID 0

My old PC has no problem with motherboard FakeRAID 0

My old PC

ASRock 990FX Extream4 BIOS/UEFI 2.50
AMD Phenom II X4 910e
A-DATA DDR3-1866 4GB x2
Sapphire RADEON HD7750 GDDR5 1GB
etc

I think kernel 3.11 does not include driver of AMD A88X FakeRAID

Thanks

#13

Hellow Everybody

I hope dmraid support Dot Hill RAIDCore/AMD A88X Fake RAID

Thanks
