That is great work Peter. Thanks to you and the openSUSE team.

OK, next...

You have the 5121e board and there are a few more 5121e systems coming from different vendors. You will be busy. Plus, we need to get the Build Service you have been working on with the 8610 with a cluster of 8610 systems. Finally, we will get everything added here:

Novell-Genesi

openSUSE-Genesi

Keep up the good work!

R&B :)

Great, thx! I will update 10.3 to 11 soon :-).

Update:

Overall download size: 891,0 M. After the operation, additional 380,2 M will be used.
Continue? [YES/no]:

(540MB Free)

Is it really needs 891,0MB on hdd or is it just "download size"?.

Update2:

It needs only 380,2 M. Thx goes to mschulz :).

Update3:

Oh noes! That's no true! I need a new big hdd :).

Thanks Peter.

Downloading it now.

I downloaded i386 and PPC. The I386 gave me strange errors during install and fell back to console-yast. :oops:

Does the PPC-version install without problems on a Peg2 or should I expect similar probs ? :?:

Did anyone do stresstests to the marvell-gigabit interface on suse11 allready ? :?:

i386: I had no problem with it.

Pegasos: Good question, I'll know more tomorrow. 'inst32' stopped booting in early 11.0 alpha versions, so I stopped trying it. Now I was written in a private e-mail, that it works. I'll verify it once the guests are gone :-)

Tested, but no success, the symptoms are the same, as when last tested...

OK, I was wrong. At least partially :-) With a little workaround, installation of openSUSE 11.0 works without problems. I could only stress marvell-gigabit on a 10/100 network, but there I did not have any troubles.

The following workaround should work on most Peg2 machines and involves the use of yaboot. One needs to copy the following files from the suseboot directory to the root of an ext2/ext3 partition on the Pegasos:

• yaboot
  yaboot.cnf
  yaboot.txt
  inst32

Then reboot the machine and boot yaboot from the OK prompt, like this: A short description of yaboot should appear. Here enter the following at the ':' prompt: This uses the driverupdate from openSuSE to fix an ugly crash bug in package selection. Of course any other boot parameters can be added here, for a complete list, see http://en.opensuse.org/Linuxrc

From this point installation works without any problems. I installed my system using the marvell-gigabit Ethernet port.

Have a lot of fun!

I just installed Opensuse 11.0DUD (with driverupdate fix) on my Pegasos2.
Unfortunately, I didn't manage to get the system boot after installation successfully finished.
From the OF prompt I tried with the following command: but it bring me back to the installation process options (install, slp or rescue).

Could anyone suggest me the right way to boot the system I just installed ?

Tnx in advance,

AKiLL

No problem, if you used dud, then you can also use: Back to your problem: which yaboot do you try to use: the one used for installation or the one from the freshly installed system?

Maybe I had a big mess during the hard disk partitioning. I had to set up again the right partitions for both root and swap and after re-installed suse 11.0 DUD.
Then, booting with the command allowed me to complete system configuration and finally start Suse :)
I used (as actually use) the one from the freshly installed system.
I also created an OF bootable image and now my system automatically loads up...

Tnx for your precious help...
