[Cooker] Failed upgrade

1999-12-28 Thread Joshua Bergland

I just tried to upgrade from 6.1 to 7.0b, and I got the setup program (btw,
I really like the new graphical version), however sometime during the
installation of the RPM packages (I wasn't watching the setup program while
it was installing them), It stopped with an error 11, and then said that it
exited gracefully and to reboot the system.

So, right now it is headed back to 6.1, as I need the system yet this
afternoon... Not sure what the problem is, I am using a SCSI cd-rw drive,
and not sure if this has anything to do with it.

I'm writing to see if anyone else has had a similar issue. I just signed up
for this list a couple of hours ago, and I don't know if this has been
discussed earlier...

RE: [Cooker] ISO vs syncing (was: Could not open default font 'fixed')

1999-12-28 Thread Joshua Bergland

I posted earlier today, about a failed upgrade attempt. I tried the upgrade
again, and it finished, however I was using the ISO image, and am now
recieving the same error (Could not open default font 'fixed')... Why is the
ISO updated as regularly as the rest of the files? Atleast daily or every
other day... Using rsync is great if your system is working, but well, mine
is not now... How can you get this to work on a Windows system? I tried to
download the current files, but I didn't get the file links that you get
with using rsync on a Linux system.

Can someone tell me which RPM I need to download that corrects this error so
that I can start the X? I just signed on to the list today, and I am sure
this has been addressed already...

Thanks in advance,

Joshua Bergland

 Tue, 28 Dec 1999 Yes, exact my opinion 
 Tue, 28 Dec 1999
 Tue, 28 Dec 1999 But, there are some rsync servers:
 Tue, 28 Dec 1999
 Tue, 28 Dec 1999 rsync://rpmfind.net/linux/MandrakeCooker/oxygen
 Tue, 28 Dec 1999 rsync://rsync.proxad.net/mandrake
 Tue, 28 Dec 1999 rsync://sunsite.uio.no/linux/Mandrake


Sorry for the newbe question but what is rsync never heard of it.?
