I successfully installed alpha 1 from the brand new iso DVD. Install
goes smoothly, but after booting the system, I come to a screeming stop:
When I try to run urpmi (from a console) for installing update
packages, urpmi refuses with the message that the hal daemon is not
running.
rpm -q in fact confirms that hal is not installed (I had done a
perfectly standard KDE install). Doing "urpmi hal" gives the evident
result: it lists 9 packages to be installed (among which is hal) but
then fails because the hal daemon is not running.
I have reproduced this with minimal installation. There isn't hal
installed and it blocks from using cdrom medium - I had to manually
mount the device and addmedia to the fixed path.
