AMD A9 Laptop with Radeon graphics. Unable to install Tumbleweed (I’ll try Leap later).
Wrote ISO image to USB stick. Boot UEFI to boot stick, select install. Get to a screen with a green progress bar on the bottom. Progress bar fills all the way, and “opensuse TUmbleweed” shows, but it stays there.
If I hit escape, a few drivers show, last line is "Realtek ethernet controller
Drivers: r8169*
Tried with brokenmodules=r8169 and r8169*, still the same issue (not even sure that’s the problem?) Any ideas?
If neither “noacpi” nor "nolapic help, try removing “splash=silent” so that at least you get a chance to spot an error message. Other possibilities can be found on https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Linuxrc and include doing text mode install with “text=1”, and what I suspect to be a good GUI installation candidate, “plymouth=0”.
Ok so here’s where I was at… Wiped drive with gparted. Started install over again. Seemed to go fine, but gets about 1/4 through:
wrong digest (Long error - filename is usb_modeswitch-data-2.5.2-1.2.noarch.rpm … then installation of package usb_modeswitch-data failed.
then about 95% execution of command “”/usr/bin/snapper", “-no=dbus”, setup-quota]]" failed. Tried a few times… I’m trying the nightly tumbleweed live image now.
FWIW, I rarely use “installation media” to install anything that changes as frequently as TW. Instead, I goto the mirrors and download the installation kernel and initrd with wget, put them somewhere on the target HD or SDD, and load them with an existing Grub to start installation. (All my PCs are multiboot.) I rarely get “installation media” errors that way. Plus, only packages that are actually to be installed consume bandwidth.
I’m seriously ready to chuck this computer… Or I’m just having horrible luck. Using the tumbleweed x86_64 net install. NOACPI and textmode=1 …
Furthest I can get I get a Error
