Nothing works better than good old

Since Viper & tsl-initrd use evms to activate the evms-specific block 
devices and Anaconda & mkinitrd doesn't, you will need to change your 
raid system completely, using different block devices, or patch mkinitrd 
to handle both kind of systems. The latter is the correct way of fixing 
this bug, since it's supposed to be upgradeable from 3.0.

I'm sure the TSL developers will have this bug fixed before 3.0.5 final 
release. :) It's good we have community testing to find these hidden 
bugs. :)

On a side note:
If they hadn't thrown out the Viper developers, they would have a 
matured working Viper installer by now, instead they went forward to a 
new version of anaconda, without having people available that knew the 
differences between the two installers.

The easier (and best, since the deveoper resources are limited) approach 
would have been to spend 6 months creating a nice swup/yum/apt-able way 
of converting a TSL installation to CentOS.. ;p New name would of course 
be: "Trustix Just-as-Secure Linux"...

Ok, I'm trolling.. ;)

Ohh, and no.. TSL didn't really need a new installer, but needed 
something to make it different from the other distributions. Well.. We 
still have 'secure' in the middle of the distribution name, so that must 
mean the distribution is more secure than the distributions that doesn't. :D

When will I stop trolling??? :D

I really need to get something to eat.. :p

And a beer.. And get laid.. Think it's time to reinstall Ubuntu, just to 
test the new, graphical installer. I've heard it's nice.. ;)


Kind regards
