Highlights (things I can remember)
1-instructions for HTTP installation, and installation kernel and
initrd too well hidden to find:
No opportunity to download and install only what will actually be
required and/or tested, wasting space, time and bandwidth.
2-issues.openmandriva did not import my account from qa.mandriva, and
on (repeated) attempting to create an account, claims to send an email
to create account that fails to arrive after many hours.
3-disk space requirements calculation broken
Claims 4.2GB needed without asking me what I want installed. What I
want installed fits in less than half the available space in the
4.8GiB target / partition. It also claims only 3.9GB available, which
makes no sense given the available 4.8GiB.
4-Crucial options missing from bootloader screen.
Only choices are MBR and exit. Exit aborts entire installation,
leaving no opportunity to set a root password or create users.
5-no opportunity to select minimal install or not install software
that will never be used (e.g. wirel*, libreoff*, *l10n*, non-en
locales, grub2, etc)
+1 this installer it is total crap ! i told it at start ! We need an
Installer like Bork, or in direction of MDK installer
the old one and good installer, where can selecting what whant the User
of the Distriebution, really,
this actual Installer it is the last crap where it is ever give !!
But !!!!! An installer it is on the way, like i has hear from the
direction of Developer and QA ..
this installer was need by have an clean start for build up the
Distriebution as so..
and the new installer it is come like i know and trust, so do not despair,
it should come an new rewritten MDK installer or something ..
I hope he , the new installer is fast as possible available/tangible ..
and works like an Borg-injector and how/what the user want :)
so, we have to wait to be the Cake finish.. and i be damn curious about
how he will be :)
i have no clue about who it programming.. !
6-rpm --rebuilddb went into la la land, more than 24 minutes without
finishing (necessitated by needing to Ctrl-C out of endless LOOP
trying to remove unneeded libreoffice*l10n). Killed via reboot. Next
try took only about a minute to run.
7-failure to stop user manager job prevents shutdown/reboot for more
than a minute
8-no om-welcome or any other window auto-opens on initial KDE login
9-attempting package installation with urpmi results in bad signatures
for all packages, even after multiple runs of urpmi.update -a.
10-unreconcilable conflicts trying to install task-printing-canon
after removing task-printing-*
