I'm trying to install using the ppc64le Factory Net ISO on a Power 7
LPAR, but I keep running in to issues. The first problem was caused by
using an outdated ISO leading to symbol version issues for mount. Now,
I can't even get the YaST installer to start.


Here's what I get after I configure the HTTP server:

Loading Installation System (1/5) -      100%
Loading Installation System (2/5) -      100%
Loading Installation System (3/5) -      100%
Loading Installation System (4/5) -      100%
Loading Installation System (5/5) -      100%
Reading Driver Update...



*** An error occurred during the installation.

If I retry the operation using the same network/HTTP config, I get a
little more helpful output:

*** http://ftp5.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/ports/ppc/factory/repo/oss/content:
Invalid signature.

Installation aborted.


I originally was using download.opensuse.org, but switched to gwdg.de
to see if maybe it was a bad mirror, but it didn't seem to help. :(

This was with the 178 build ISO from June 24th. I do not get this
problem with the 180 ppc64 build from the 25th. I have not tried the
180 ppc64le ISO. The little information I could find related to this
error seemed to involve having the clock set wrong, but the existing
Ubuntu ppc64 install shows the correct time and as I said, the ppc64
ISO seems to work fine.

Has anyone gotten the ppc64le install working?
