Hi,
I could not help but notice that Hydrogen 7.1b has problems formatting the swap
partition
during the installation. Even using the "auto-allocate" option in diskdrake or
selecting
"automated" install, I get a message "Swap partition must be." The actual message
reported
on screen 3 (or whatever) is "Swap partition must be at least 40kb." This only occurs
when
an extended partition is used. If I manually allocate using only primary partitions,
everything is fine.
BTW, the inclusion of reiserfs during the install is *heaven*. In this day and age of
$225
27GB hard drives, I don't know why everyone refers to journalling filesystems as being
important for "enterprise only".
Hats off to Mandrake!
I've switched from Red to Blue... ;-)
