Steps:
- Create Ventoy USB disk
- Copy to "Ventoy" folder any openSUSE ISO (LEAP, Tumbleweed or Gecko derivatives)
- Boot Ventoy USB and select copied openSUSE ISO
- In openSUSE menu, select "more ..." then "Check installation media" and after a while, it will ask for device to check (usually it should not ask, but simply check or to show "sr0: openSUSE-Tumbleweed-DVD-i586-Snapshot20210729-Media.iso") media where it was booted.
If you leave it empty, you'll get an error "Invalid device name". Then click "Ok" and it will be show you a window with "Please, make sure your installation medium is available. Choose the URL to retry"
and next options:
"cd:/
hd:/
http:/download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss
Enter another URL"
In that window user CAN'T select USB booted from to check media (it should at least show plugged USB devices, in fact, I had two USB devices plugged).
And that's all. This is the simplest way to get the issue, but this trouble is worse when trying to install, cause after configuring all forms to install, openSUSE is not able (like I wrote in previous sentence) to locate media where source files are.
