This is the Linux distribution my server is based on. More information is available here. If you are looking to install openSUSE, there are more details in obtaining openSUSE 13.2.

Installation notes

  • The CrashPlan GUI client needs settings changed to make it work otherwise is will open for a few seconds and crash. This is a long withstanding issue from the previous release. Please see this page for the settings. The memory settings on the server line also need changing to allow more memory usage (change -Xmx512 to at least -Xmx1024, recommended -Xmx2048).
  • Samba will need the root user setting up manually as YaST has lost the ability to do this on the first run after it's port to Ruby. To do this, open the terminal and su. When in su, type smbpasswd -a root. This will prompt for the password you would like to use and then create the root user.
