Paralles 2.2 on SuSe 10.2 Can't config

Hi, I thought I asked this last week but it never showed up on the forum. Anyway, I am having a problem doing "parallels-config". I get this error message in the log file. I have noticed that some are not having any difficulty with this. I've preinstalled Kernel-Sources, gcc, c++, make. I couldn't find ld [binutils.

Can I get some help Please? getting desperate

Thanks,
Ron

Now I see why my original request never showed up is because it was too large. Also it's to large as an attachment. I have zipped it so it will fit.
Again, Thanks for any help.

I installed it on Suse 10.2 Core 2 Duo with no problem and ran config, then installed winxp. Couple of glitches with WinXP, but otherwise it works fine. I had the packages installed that you called out. I think binutils is also on the DVD, but I don't recall having problems with it.

Could this be related to the fact that I am running SuSe 10.2 6 bit?
Ron

 

Most assuredly. Parallels will not yet work on 64-bit. I tried it on 64-bit before going back to 32-bit.

Thanks afore,
I just tried it on my 32bit laptop and it worked fine. Weird how that other 32 bit programs work on 64 bit machines. s**t. I guess I'll have to reinstall Suse10.2 as 32 bit.

Thanks,
Ron

 

Joing
the club. That is what I did also.

OK, I have to ask... How in the world do you force a 32 but install of suse 10.2? In 10.1 there is an F key on the install screen. Using the downloaded DVD that is not there on 10.2. I seached the web for 2 days see many people who install 32 bit, but no one mentioned how to force it. Thanks to anyone who can solve this mystery. Am I am really missing something so simple? BTW, I am using a n E6600 core duo processor and Asus P5W64 motherboard, could that be disallowing the option in 10.2?

 

For opensuse 10.2 I'm pretty sure you have to download the 32-bit DVD separately (called i386).

See: http://en.opensuse.org/Released_Version#Downloads

I just clicked an F key,(don't remember which one) that was there on the initial install splash screen.

Thanks folks, it looks like I have to use I386. There is no F key for this on my 10.2, there was on 10.1. Thanks again.

Update: I discovered that the download versions come in 32 and 64 bit. The retail, which is what I had for 10.1 has both on a single DVD with the install option. Anyway, I went back to 10.1, 10.2 had too many problems.
