Folks- Problem A. I'm attempting a reinstall on LibraNet Compilation of debian/linux from cd.....I have a secondary master HD, which is dedicated to linux. when I attempt to partition it, I can get the primary partion installed, but system will not allow me to change file type to linux extended. After creating linux swap partition & progressing through the install, I see that that 1st partition has been changed to "Linux ext2". Is this acceptable for continuing the install?
Problem 2. After creating root password & user info, I'm instructed by install manual to progress to desktop install. Then, login as root, place cd back in & type the following commands: >script <enter> >mkdir /cdimage <enter> >mount /dev/cdrom /cdimage at which time the system returns >Fat Bread Failed >mount: you must specify the file type Unfortunately, the install manual doesn't address this issue..... Any kind souls willing to invest some time for a rank newbie who desperately wants to develope a working knowledge of this OS?
