Hi! I want to report problems with my clean install of Cooker (rsync from 17 Mar 2001): - some of the packages are not in the rpmslist (e.g. libstc++2.10) - so I added them to get a complete CD-R set. There are still some unresolved dependencies (like scrollkeeper and an old libstdc++). I could give more details on this if required. - I booted from the first CD-R, it booted fine but it didn't find my SCSI CD-ROMs. It detected my harddisks - which are connected to the same SCSI adapter - but no CD-ROM and no CD-R burner. To procceed I repaired and connected a IDE CD-ROM device. I booted - installed the base system without any further problems. - When X was started after booting the system - my monitor reported that sync is out of range. It worked with the X of the installation process. This is a bug I read on this list recently. (I have a mga 200 graphics adapter and use the XFree-4.0.2-11mdk) - The backspace key (console) behaved not correctly. Is switched to US keyboard layout and back to German. That seems to have fixed the problem. - As this was my first clean Cooker install I was rather impressed by the changes of the installer since 7.2. For my taste it is almost too Windows-like :) I hope X and the SCSI installation problems will be fixed until next week - I could do another install and test it again Alexander
