Creating Automatic Configuration on UEFI systems Feb 9th 2013, 10:45 I am trying to install RC1 on an HP with UEFI boot. I have disabled Secure boot, and I have successfully installed Fedora 18 and Ubuntu 13.04 Beta. When I go through the openSuSE installation procedure it seems that I get everything right - the EFI Boot partition on this system is /dev/sda2, and I have openSuSE set up to mount that on /boot/efi without formatting it. The installation seems to complete normally, but when I reboot, and it should go into the "Creating Automatic Configuration..." screens, it just hangs. After a very long time it goes into "welcome to emergency mode" or some such, and I am basically out of luck at that point. So, could someone please tell me.. 1. What would cause it not to get into the Automatic Configuration sequence? (it seems like it isn't finding a console, or some such) 2. How I can create a manual configuration, either before rebooting so that it doesn't need/want/try the Automatic Configuration, or after Automatic Configuration has failed, so that I can recover from whatever mess it makes? Thanks, jw
