openSUSE 11.1 Alpha1 has been released



openSUSE 11.1 Alpha1 is available -- but beware, this is an Alpha with very rough edges!

While testing this on a Thinkpad R51, the system didn't boot after first stage installation. We are still looking into this issue (#411937). In addition to that, the default GNOME installation will complain about a missing package (providing gnome-session-branding).

With the current bootloader issue, using the DVDs for installing is not recommended, until we have a workaround. Please try the LiveCDs instead!
