Re: [Cooker] HD install from the isos does not ask for the second iso...
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Silly you still have to extract the images to a hd, why is there no loop.img? Or maybe just use hd.img, but if an iso is selected as location, the installer can mount it quickly? Doesn't seem to difficult to me?

But it is good if you have double boot with Windows, and we have peoples who are coming to Linux from Windows. Aren't we? Especialy if the CD is not booting up as it did for me. (8.2 beta 3). What wrong with that? Irek
Re: [Cooker] HD install from the isos does not ask for the second iso...
This sounds like a winsh*t program right? Sorry, can' t use that here:) ... But the idea is intersting,if I extract both images to a dir (after mounting them like this: mount -t iso9660 ./image /mnt/my_install_dir -o loop) it might work... Thank you...

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I agree that the beta period should be somewhat longer (4 betas and 1 rc), but economic reality (and our desire for an up-to-date distro) dictates that a release should be made at least once every 6 months.
