On my blog at www.zen.org/~brendan/ I've got some of the details behind trying
to get SuSE 9.2 Professional (sent by a friend) going on my laptop. The
short of it is, the installation software seemed to create two partitions on
the disk, one for the root partition and the other for /home. But after I
had the system going, I realized that somehow the partition holding / was in
fact not mounted---the larger partition apparently for /home did in fact have
everything on it. That was the partition being used to boot.
I hadn't done anything odd, no weird choices, just telling it it's a New
Installation. I figured I'll mess with it after I've got it going, having
used SuSE 9.1 on it for a while.
Have any of you tried out 9.2 Professional and had it install without any
hassle?
Thanks,
B
