Hello. A friend installed slink using my 2.1r2 CDs purchased from cheapbytes (ie, no non-free, no non-us) and we selected a fairly minimal install, intending to upgrade to potato once he was on the network.
Well, we are having some troubles -- the configure script for tetex-base hangs. Once we had to kill -9 the dpkg process to get it to stop, and another two times ^C was able to kill it. Unfortunatly, I am not good at dealing with dpkg, so I don't know how to get apt and dpkg to not even deal with tetex until later -- putting tetex-* on hold in dselect didn't fix it. :( (We even got an error message suggesting we reinstall before trying to remove the package..) This is on a dual-Celeron computer -- but we haven't even tried to get the two cpus to work at once; we were going to upgrade to potato and then install kernel 2.2 before trying that.. :) Thanks -- Seth Arnold | http://www.willamette.edu/~sarnold/ Hate spam?
