A friend of mine who usually uses SuSE had some troubles with downloading an ISO and trying to install 7.1. By the date of the ISO, I would guess he got a beta ISO? Anyone have some wisdom I can send to him to get him to get it to install properly? I haven't run into this problem myself so I'm kinda useless at the moment.

I'm using the school address as that is where I did the download. I got the iso from ftp.twoguys.org. The date for their system is may 17th. It is the i586 version. The errors that I was getting was that it couldn't mount the drive. It would format it, and then stop with an error that said something about couldn't mount /mnt/boot. The only thing I could figure out is that it was creating the directories before the install. Oh, and this was under 'expert' mode for install. I had create partition in the following. /boot 10meg ext2 / 2985meg ReiserFS (approximate) swap 128 meg. Then I let it do the partitions. It split it up into 3 partition that were something like / ext2 swap /home ext2 The system is an Epox MB with 192meg, amd k6-2/400, WD 3.2gig drive, advansys SCSI card with cd-writer and tape drive, IDE CD-rom 48x. I'll try to do some more with it tonight. Perhaps try it in custom mode. Mike Roark Rainbow ES DSN 468-7806 Commercial 0981-15984
