Hi. I have not been successful in being able to get any openSUSE 10.2 || 10.3 installations.

I have trolled the stack debug info, and follwed through the thread calls, and as all the openSUSE installs fail at the last point of the install (h/w setup) I can only assum at this point that either the problems is with the Video SAX2 rescan or some other XOS incompatability. Tried both Fusion 1.0 & 1.1 Beta - same results - BUGGER!!!

Hopefully VM support will help us all out soon.

i am having the same problem with sled10 sp1 x64 on leopard with fusion 1.1RC1, using my prod key. it failed at the very last h/w configuration with black blank screen, no cursor blinking.
when i restart the VM it prompts me that the installation failed and asked me to continue intall or not. to continue only observe the same result; not to continue actually brings the VM to work correctly except my sound card sin't configured - i am ok with that. after this the VM appears to be working fine and i can congigure my display in sled.
in all i was told that the installation failed but i am ok to use it for most part.
