3.1.6 Potential Problems
The desired keyboard layout is not offered by linuxrc.
To solve this, select an alternative, such as ‘English (US)’. After the
installation is completed, adjust this setting with YaST.
The SCSI adapter of your machine is not recognized.
Try loading the module of a compatible adapter. Also check whether
a disk with a driver update for your adapter has been made available.
Your ATAPI CD-ROM drive hangs when the system tries to read from
it.
See Section 3.7 on page 133.
The system hangs when loading data into a RAM disk.
In some cases, there may be a problem loading the data into the RAM
disk, making it impossible for YaST to start. If this happens, try the
following steps, which should fix the error. From the linuxrc main
menu, select ‘Settings’ ➝ ‘Debug (Expert)’. In the dialog that opens,
set ‘Force Root Image’ to ‘no’. Then return to the main menu and try
starting the installation again.
