I'm just not getting anywhere with this installation on this
laptop...which is very fustrating and in fact embassesing.
It will boot from the darn installation medium, and work the network
card, but it just can't seem to boot of the hard drive. It is stuck
configuring hardware. I'm just at a loss at what to do so I'm dragging
down the Linux SOurce code and I'm going to try to compile the thing by
hand, unless anyone else has ideas about how to otherwise proceed with
opensuse.
