I downloaded the 32-bit KDE iso for openSUSE 13.1 from software.opensuse.org/131/en. I am attempting to install, from USB, to a computer currently running Debian/Fedora. After downloading the openSUSE iso, I made an openSUSE live USB using the following command:
sudo dd if=/home/mike/downloads/openSUSE-13.1-KDE-Live-i686.iso of=/dev/sdb
- After restarting the computer, the openSUSE installer page appears, and seems to be operating fine. However after selecting either i) installation, or ii) openSUSE KDE live, a terminal screen appears with a lot of code, none of which looked familiar (nor could I copy it), and at the end it said:
reboot in 120 seconds
- After this, the screen automatically returned to the Grub menu.
- I restarted the computer and attempted to try again, however this time it just went straight to Grub.
- I deleted the USB drive, reinstalled the same .iso image via the same command as above, and again the same thing happened.
Has anyone else experienced this? Do you have any suggestions? I suppose my next attempt will be to download the GNOME version, and see if this works, but I really don't want GNOME. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
