Better try waiting longer, much longer. The only time I tried to install 2.0
from scratch I had the same problem, went back to 1.3 and upgraded all then,
but this is not what we want. I remember dimly that things like this also
happen on i386 (read about it and experienced myself). The solution was to
wait much much longer. I thought this "bug" was fixed in the meantime, or is
it only fixed on i386?
Sorry, I havent got the time and HD space to check out again myself, but
AFAIR this is/was a known problem which should have been fixed by now.
Ciao,
Christian.
