YaST(2) Aborts During the Package Installation
Support knowledgebase (packagehang)
Applies to
SuSE Linux: All versions
Symptom:
YaST1 or YaST2 aborts when installing RPM packages during the first installation. Possible error messages may vary, e.g
RPM reports an error.
Cause:
The cause cannot be clearly determined because the package installation depends on
several factors.
In the case of an IDE system with a certain chipset, the cause might be a wrong driver for the
controller.
Solution:
Boot from the second CD, which contains the kernel for non-Pentium systems and for
certain IDE chipsets. The installation should now run smoothly.
If this approach does not produce the expected results, refer to the article
