Hi,

after running into installation issues in VirtualBox on OpenSUSE 12.3 a while 
ago, I now retried to install the ISO in VirtualBox on openSUSE 13.1 (x86_64). 
Still no luck...

Hmmm, could that "magic" be the reason why I can boot the ISO image in 
VirtualBox, but once I install it, it does not boot at all?

Not sure if I took the right image though...
