Just a heads-up. We're trying our best to get 2.2.5 out the door as quickly as we can. I was hoping by late tomorrow to get it uploaded. Detailed error reports on 2.2.4 are not solicited at this point.
I uploaded a "slop build" i386 version from earlier this evening to <URL:http://lully.debian.org/~aph/bf-2.2.5-pre-19990124/>. I know for a fact that installation via loop devices (i.e., installing kernel/drivers from local disk) is utterly broken. Also broken there but fixed in CVS is that dbootstrap_settings wasn't carrying over the KEYBD setting properly -- now that is fixed in CVS. Many other things are probably broken there. This is based on 2.2.14 and uses the pcmcia modules from Incoming. The i386 version introduces the 'compact' flavor or rescue/root/driver disks, which is for modern machines (eliminates MCA, FPU emulation and other old crufty stuff), supporting several popular pci enet cards. It has only a single drivers disk! I would be interested to get more detailed information on lilo problems that people may or may not have with that version, assuming they get that far. Also, the net-fetch method should be working. Everything else is probably broken :) Please do not run full testing on this -- but I would like to know what showstoppers we don't already know about that that has. -- .....Adam Di [EMAIL PROTECTED]<URL:http://www.onShore.com/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
