Xwindow problem on new potato system and install gotchas.
I just freshly installed potato yesterday and tried a variety of different
fonts and font servers from dselect to get this to work and nothing seems
to stop X from not finding the fixed fonts it seems to need.
Anyone have any ideas to help me fix this? Log is below from startx
Two more things: The kernel name changes from linux.gz to vmlinuz after
you boot of your own hardisk. I didn't find this documented anywhere,
maybe I missed it? I also had the same request as a previous mail from
dbootstrap about getting eb164 when I have an lx164 during milo
installation on my harddrive. I was able to just tell it to grab from the
milo floppy without difficulty.
