Hello,
I was able to get this installed yesterday. I had to manually install the kernel
from the source since, as Robert pointed out, it does not get installed. Skip the
bootloader installation step. Chroot to target, edit lilo.conf and add entry,
install lilo. Then finish up with installation.
The default desktop experience has reverted to the leaf wallpaper, black theme,
and Folder View. I'm still not totally decided on which I prefer - Desktop or
Folder view. If widgets could be confined to the Widget Dashboard similar to the
Mac OSX Dashboard, then my preference would be Folder view with Widget Dashboard
quicklaunch on kde panel. However, since that doesn't seem possible at this time I
guess I'm more partial to Desktop view with no widgets which is too bad because
the addition of widgets is very nice eye candy. However, I find the widgets a
useless addition without the ability to hide them - they lead to an overly
cluttered visual experience. Regardless, this doesn't have much to do with VL1.24,
just a rant :D
I did notice that some things had also reverted: VasmCC does not start/not
installed, opera lost it's menu icon, sound did not seem to be working as it
always had. That's about were I stopped testing. I felt like the KDE experience
had gone back a few renditions (i.e. circa 1.17). However, this was not the best
test due to the installer issues relating to kernel installation, so I'll just
mark this one as 'ignored' and happily wait for the next alpha. I did notice that
KDE was upped to 4.3.1!! It's definitely progressing!
Cheers, newt
