Found a few problems:
GUI Install: a) Advanced screen has 'security' spelt wrong (stage1) b) When using DHCP for network settings, the installer (stage2) does not ask for a "hostname" if I simply accept on the initial panel. This results in a host name of localhost, and more importantly, the DHCP_HOSTNAME entry in /etc/sysconfig/network is missing. However, if I cancel, then select lan, dhcp then it asks and everything is OK. c) CUPS startup leaves a defunct modprobe process. It looks like the problem is occuring when probing for usb devices in progress (dynamic/script??). I do not have a local parallel printer and no usb devices, just a Windows shared printer else where on the network; however both printer and usb hardware are enabled in bios. AutoInstall: a) lots and lots and ... of rpmdb: var/lib/rpm/Basesnames: No such file or directory messages on the primary console during the install. b) During installation, msec is changing the the permissions of the lilio.conf file from 600 to 644 when I have the keyword 'password' is in it: DrakX sets it correctly. The result is a Warning message from lilo that lilio.conf should be readable by root only. b) lilo is reporting a warning that the 'menu-scheme' is not supported by the boot loader. Best regards Dave
