Hi,
I am new to this list but a rather experienced Mdk user. For some reason I can't seem to get a login on Mandrakeforum, so I'll start posting the bugs I think I've found here. It's probably the better place anyway. Here is no. 1: I had two failed installs on my machine because the root device (/dev/root mounted on /) has no space left. Ways to reproduce: 1) Use LVM and 4 different partitions with 4 different journaling filesystems -> Mounting partitions fails because insmod ext3 fails because /tmp/ext3.o has 0 bytes. I was able to overcome this by manually deleting stuff from /tmp, but only until the next step, where I couldn't find anything to delete anymore. OK, 4 different journaling filesystems is crazy, but we were told to do crazy things with beta4. And people may want to do this for testing the filesystem performance. 2) Use LVM but only ext3. Installation proceeds up to the network installation step, (I have two ethernet cards, 8139too + tulip, plus an ISDN adapter). Loading the second ethernet module fails for the same reason as before. Sorry if this is well known. Btw the error messages on the graphic screen are misleading, so similar problems may be behind a number of "failed to load module xy" or "failed to load xyz module" bug reports.
