I just tried the RC1 businesscard install again, and this time it
prompted for whether I should add the "large-memory" option,
defaulting to yes. So far so good. Then it prompted me for whether I
want to run lilo again, defaulting to no. Since I had already run
lilo, it seems that it should default to yes. But I am not sure if
that will leave open the possibility of messing up someone's system.
In any case, the bugs in the packages can be closed.
