Hi, I don't know if it's a bug or not, but you don't need to reinstall. You could edit /etc/fstab and if needed "tar zxvfp base37.tgz" and others Regards Alex 2005/6/25, asdfasdf asfdasdfasdf <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > The nosuid thing is the only inconsistency I've > noticed.

usr mounted nosuid by default..?
I'm not sure if this is a bug: I just did a fresh 3.7 install on a sparc 64 machine and my /usr partition was set to use nosuid by default. This resulted in su not working for me. I think I know what caused the problem to occur. When I was partitioning my drive and specifying the mount points I left a trailing slash when I specified the /usr/ partition. This may have led to the installation process not realizing what the mount options should be. The nosuid thing is the only inconsistency I've noticed. Should I be concerned enough to do a reinstall? Should I file this as a bug? Leaving the trailing slash seems like a perfectly natural "unixism". If it is considered a bug, I'll try and duplicate it again to see if I actually found the cause.
