2.2.5-2000-01-27 compact install
I don't think I ran across any bug not already mentioned (install from
HD, modconf and network setup broken). Although I am not sure where the
"cannot create /root/dbootstrap_settings; directory nonexistent"
message came from, the file does exist after the base system is installed.
Is all that "floppy driver state" info spit out before asking for a root
disk necessary, can it be turned off?
I'm also curious as to why selecting "Restart..." failed with,
"Could not setup init-chroot for starting the new system. Try
simply rebooting instead."
I haven't actually rebooted to finish the installation yet...
base doesn't include minicom so I have no way of communicating with the
outside world with a fresh potato install. :(
Now that ncurses4 is gone (in 2.2.6 bf's, right), you should have room
for at least the minicom executables. I mean, what do you do if ya
can't get ppp to work... fire up minicom and start troubleshooting the
connection, right.
later,
Bruce
