Hi all,
Installed Vicibox Redux 3.0.9 64. Followed the walkthrough. After zypper refresh and then zypper up, I reboot. It hangs, I powercycle, it boots and then hangs at Firewall initialization phase 2 of 2.
I'm a bit of a linux noob, so I'm kind of stuck.
Thanks,

try skipping zypper refresh and zypper up entirely. just os-install.
also: (in case this changes nothing) are you sure you have internet with dhcp available hooked up to the server?
! And so I don't forget to mention it, thank you for specifying the actual install .iso!

You shouldn't have been using zypper prior to os-install. That should have been something you done after os-install and a reboot.

Hi Kumba,
I wasn't. I was at stage 1.5 in the walkthrough.
Thanks,

Don't get me wrong, OpenSuSE is marvelous and the Vicibox Redux is, too. But the OpenSuSE operating system on the CD seems to be the best bet ... 10% of the time the updates (OS zypper or simple repository) have blockades that lock it up. Skipping them (or changing repositories) has been necessary several times.
