I ran installs tonight with the lastest cooker tree rather than the 8.1b2
file set and the 900+ lines for the printer definition are gone; much easier
to read, thanks
At the end of the GUI install (printer installs successfully) I generate the
'Automated' disk and then, boot and let the auto install start. I get to
'Summary' message, then the error message "Cannot read printrc file!" shows
up and I am asked to reboot. On the ALT-F3 screen I see the message:
warning: foomatic-configure failed at /usr/bin/perl-install/printer.pm line
676.
Hope this helps...
Dave
