I just did two more installs for you into a VMWare machine. Second one - no options - all defaults - took about 10 minutes. First one died. I selected a couple simple options like grub and timezone, came back to a message that installer had exited. Sorry, no other info on screen and I was not sitting watching it. The painfully slow installs were via PXEboot; I will try that again later today perhaps. Not sure if VMware will PXEboot and my spare server is not hooked up at the moment. > (what is the point in installing outdated packages anyway? you have to update > them later in any case) Hopefully Trustix ISO images will be kept relatively up to date and hopefully there will never be ISO images with more than minor security issues on them. Many people don't have fast Internet connections. While installing the machine is down and unusable. Once it is up and running you can do 'swup --upgrade' as a background task while you use the machine for other things. -- Brian Wilson Corvallis, Oregon 541-368-4120 _______________________________________________ tsl-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trustix.org/mailman/listinfo/tsl-discuss
