    SuSE 10.2 Installation Help

    I just finished burning the SuSE 10.2 iso to a DVD, after that I inserted the DVD in the drive. It reached the menu options (Installation, ACPI Disabled, Boot Hard Drive...etc.), but whenever I choose Installation, the screen blanks for a sec and then the computer restarts, and then it goes back to the menu. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I have Vista installed, do I have to partition the Hard Drive first, or can I just have YaST separate the partitions and install SuSE on one end of the Hard Drive?

    You should not have to partition, but you do need to leave unpartitioned space on the hard drive so that Suse can create its own partitions.

    Be sure to check the checksums of the iso image to be sure that it downloaded correctly. Also burn the image at the slowest possible speed.
