Well, rsync finally finished over the weekend and I did a 'British' hd
install � la Ron Stodden.
I congratulate you Cookers for a great installation. A few points follow:
1. I kept getting the "There was an error installing packages:" message
for locales-es, ~pl, ja, netscape-polish, ~japanese, ~spanish, etc.,
none of which I had selected (expert install - workstation).
2. I have a Promise Ultra66 controller which _was_ recognised, but I
couldn't boot - I had to use my 7.1 boot floppy to get in and do
repairs. It got a little bit further before it hung - reported finding
hde, hdg and hdh - then nothing. I had to remove the
'append=" ide3=autotune ide2=autotune"' line from lilo.conf to make
it work. I put back in its place 'append=" ide2=0xd800,0xdc02
ide3=0xe000,0xe402'. I used to also have 'optim' on this line. Is
that still valid?
I'm very impressed with the still rough-around-the-edges KDE. There must
be some things it doesn't like though, because I made a terrible mess of
it doing a manual upgrade - support, then libs, base, etc. But the Cooker
install makes a very good job of it
