[Cooker] minor problems
I finally finished downloading oxygene here tonight. I tried to install it just to try it out but I had some problems during installation: 1. Export mode doesnt let you choose wich cd-rom you want to install from. If I run the normal installation I get to choose which cd-rom I want to install from, eg hdc, scd0, scd1. In expert mode I can just choose between hdc and scsi cdroms. It only tries scd0 if I choose the scsi one. 2. The mouse didn't work in X. Tried "insmod serial" but it didn't work. "insmod_ /tmp/serial.o" fixed it. 3. After loading the second stage ramdisk the machine reboots all by itself unless I specify "mem=128M" when booting from the CD-ROM. I suspect the problem lies with my bios, since other 2.2.x kernels only detect 64M unless I specify mem=128M. -- Tarjei Skorgenes [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [Cooker] Minor problems during install
En réponse à Pixel [EMAIL PROTECTED]: paranoid is what asked for : Yes, but even if my password was 10 letters long, it was based on dictionnary word ... After, I tried to install lilo and it wrmed me than my HD is too large.I knew but I tried. It didn't work and after when I select X configuration, it said me that "a lilo error occured". so what can we do? suggestions? Yes, I can't finish X Installation, because every time, I checked "Ok", it said me that I had a Lilo error.

[Cooker] Minor problems during install
I have installed Cooker (version of friday night, 3/12) and I had some minor problems: * I have selected "paranoid" installation and I try a password of 8 letters, which is my NetBSD/NIS password (so it's secure, normally) and it said "too simple". I tried a password of 10 letters (qwertyuiop) and it worked. After, I tried to install lilo and it wrmed me than my HD is too large.I knew but I tried. It didn't work and after when I select X configuration, it said me that "a lilo error occured". And last, a secure script contains a error (a missing ") And during the package selection, I wasn't sure that the package was selected because of the colors.
