Hello, Here are some notes during an install with 1.23 (installer revision 705): >> FATAL (major): >> After installing system and user reaches "System Bootload Config": 'back' >> button is enabled but causes a FATAL error: [20] Bad Argument. fmain.?.0 >> >> Earlier on (minor): >> Gparted offers reiser4 but fails to create partitions. I feel like it should >> either not be an option or the user should be warned that it will fail if they >> try. I have a feeling that many folks will attempt to use this filesystem >> because it's been such a hot topic lately. >> >> When unselecting X11 package the warning message still says 'conponent' >> (spelling) towards the end of the message. >> >> Missing some packages on 2nd package selection screen. I don't remember them >> all but there was about 6 and now there's only 1 (gutenprint). There used to be hplips, plus others. >> >> Suggestions (random thoughts): >> -Perhaps there should be an option in the JWM menu to start the >> installer if the user quits it, or encounters a fatal error and it crashes. Maybe, maybe not. >> -Since we often times recommend to user to use the CD to reinstall >> lilo, I wonder if there should be some sort of lilo installation routine that a user could access in case needed. I'm going to do the installation again avoiding the FATAL error so I can complete it this time :D Cheers, newt -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Monday, August 10, 2009, 2:56:04 AM, you wrote: RL> Lets give these iso's a try I think we are ready for a public release.
