I was interested in trying out openSUSe and tried to install it on my third drive:
on my first and second attempt the install failed with an error that the creation of the efi Boot partition failed
something along the lines of:
execution of command /usr/sbin/shim-install failed no space left on device
(i tried both manual and automatic partitioning)
i then tried to install fedora on that disk, just to see if something is wrong with the disk (or my skill) and it worked without a hinch.
after that i tried it again with tumbleweed and it seemed to install just fine.
but when i tried to boot it didn’t work,
it just showed a black screen with a blinking - for about a minute before rebooting.
i gave up after that.
is there something that i might have missed during my install,
i thought that openSUSE has a great reputation.
system is a ryzen 7 with an rtx 2060,
on an ASRock mainboard with secure boot deactivated.
disk is my old 250gb samsung 840 evo
How did you set up your install medium, @Kerb@discuss.tchncs.de?
Recommendation is to use one of the installer images, not the Live tester. Also, I think using Ventoy has caused problems in the past for some.
apparently flashing the stick directly did the trick,
thanks for the help
Glad to hear it. Hope you enjoy the distro!
