Hey Group;
Check DVD - openSuSE-DVD-Build0556-Media DVD1 reported OK

I downloaded a 11.3 M5 DVD and burned it with K3B.  Checked it - OK 
Rebooted and up it came.  Seemed very nice and looked like it worked. 
It partitioned the drives, loaded the files and then got to "Saving 
bootloader configuration" - "Install Boot Manager" and hung up.  So I 
went to a
Key F1) and saw "(%hash) is depreciated at /usr/share/YaST2/modules/ 
URLencode.pm"  on lines 53 and 67console
Key F2) /usr/bin/perl /sbin/update-bootloader --image 
/bootvimlinuz-2.6.34-rc3-3-default --initrd 
/boot/initrd-2.6.34-rc3-3-default ---default --add --force 
2.6.34-rc3-3-default. as sleeping.
What had happen required me to chroot /mnt and create "mknod"s and run 
the above plus mkinitrd.

Again like on M4 there was still the GRUB error during mkinitrd
2010-04-17 09:35:40 Warning:GRUB::GRUBDev2UnixDev:No Partition found for 
/dev/sda 7 (which is / root), 2 (which is Fedora 12) and 3 (which is an 
archive drive).

"df" showed no "//sda" 1,2,3 or "//sdb"1.2 No such file or directory.

Last thing was to reboot on the DVD and use the "Repair" which seems to 
fail doing a video action.  It made it through braille and one piece 
more and then a big red error message.

This is a i686 seen as a i586 with 2 gigs of memory
I finally beat it and this message is from the machine in question
