Hi there,
My laptop did some very peculiar first time I installed mdk. I
knew it was ok cause I already had SuSE running on it before. It
was the automounter that was killing me most of the time:o( If you
installed it 'enabled' (default), just disabling automount in
linuxconf doesn't solve it. For me at least only a clean new
install did that:o(
lots of luck,
Harm Bathoorn
