Hi again,
Okay, I ran an rsync and tried the Panoramix install for the second time
(using mdkinst_hd.img). First the good news:
- The slowness problem is gone. It's very quick now.
- My parition table wasn't wiped! (Yay!)
The bad news:
After choosing my root partition, it asks which paritions to format (just
between root and swap for me.) I clicked the root, then clicked OK. I
then got the following error:
all: can't opendir /tmp/rhimage/Mandrake/RPMS: No such file or directory
I aborted at that point by hitting ctrl-alt-bs. When it dropped back to
text mode, I noticed lots of "use of uninitialized variable" errors.
It "use strict" being used? Maybe some checks for "defined($var)" need to
be added?
Anyway, I'm a glutton for punishment. Let me know when this is fixed and
I'll give it another whirl. (I think I should order a tape backup system.
:)
Chris
