Already done! The Australian mirror now heads the list on your web page. But aaarnet (in Brisbane) was an official mirror for 7.0, and appeared in your web page list.

Re: [Cooker] 7.1 Final ISOs Install Error
BS''D ... sorry in advance for bothering you again with this ... but what's exactly the difference between Hydrogen-Beta3-Install-ISO and the Mandrake-Final-ISO. The latter one is by size bigger (ftp.free.fr) and by date created earlier than the first one -- so there must be some differences. (By the way: the most stable version I tried on my machine is what I created from cooker on Sun 21. May taking off the wrong ldconfig-RPM from May 19) Best, Daniel.

the pb is that rpmlib doesn't tell so. Or at least i have to scan the
install.log to know that. I've already added this:
die _("Some important packages didn't get installed properly.
Either your cdrom drive or your cdrom is defective.
Check the cdrom on an installed computer using \"rpm -qpl Mandrake/RPMS/*.rpm\"
") if grep { m|read failed: Input/output error| }
cat_("$o->{prefix}/root/install.log");
could you give the install.log you got?

I am using beta 3 from free.fr I had no problems installing even from the EXT CD. I installed from both CDs. Is there a problem with TAR in beta 3? I always try to find RPMs for software that I want. Ok, call me lazy. I have been trying to install the BTTV drivers, but keep getting errors like 'this appears to not be TAR file' on every file I try. > >>Yes, and what about the beta3 isos that doesn't work (the ext >>one) ? >> >>Pascal >> > > >Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com > Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
Re: [Cooker] 7.1 Final ISOs
I downloaded from free.fr and have never had any problems with the ISO that I know of. Everything installed fine and is working fine.

So that means the final is being released with a broken identd? (See my previous 2 bug reports.) Don Head Linux Mentor Wave Technologies, Inc.

Re: [Cooker] 7.1 Final ISOs
Riyadit would appear that unlike past releases, they are holding off on putting the release iso's on the mirror sites till the retail boxed sets are in place in the retailer's stores. So, when the retail stuff is all in place then they'll put the iso's on the mirrors and announce the release. Sounds like good sound marketing to me (if I'm correct). :-) Alan Riyad Kalla wrote: > > I've asked this question about 6 times and never gotten a response: > > It sounds from little remarks here and there, that 7.1 has gone final and > off to be pressed/packaged.

Re: [Cooker] 7.1 Final ISOs
Hmm. But I still cannot work with X 3.3.6 immediately after installation, it misses some libraries. Last try was yesterday. I wouldn't consider it as final in any sense.

Is the ext cd image still broken? The date on it is 05/16 which strikes me as being before the reported problems with it. -- _ _|_|_ ( ) *Anton Graham /v\ / <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> /( )X (m_m) GPG ID: 18F78541 Penguin Powered!

Re: [Cooker] 7.1 Final ISOs
And can we pre-order on-line? And if so, when can we expect it to arrive in the mail? -David Talbot At 02:48 PM 6/2/00 -0700, you wrote: >I've asked this question about 6 times and never gotten a response: > >It sounds from little remarks here and there, that 7.1 has gone final and >off to be pressed/packaged.
