Fair enough... Once I'm comfortable with nuking my 7.2 work system to
put cooker on it, I'll be doing it. I normally run cooker all of the
time, but yesterday Drakx would not do the install for me at all, and
I ended up wasting a few hours fiddling with it and
re-installing/re-configuring 7.2. While I enjoy using cooker, I think
the powers that be would be upset if all my time was spent trying to
debug the installer instead of actually working... =)
To be safe (and more productive), I'll be testing it in VMWare until I
feel like doing a re-install on my primary system. I don't have very
many non-critical machines around here that can handle the downtime of
a bad install. =(
