[newbie] New 8.0 thread

2001-03-09 Thread Roger Sherman

So, Im planning on installing 8.0b tomorrow, but I hear LILO wont work
with it yet, and that Ill have to use a boot disk with it. But I also
heard the feature to make a boot disk doesnt work yet either...what should
I do to be able to boot into the system once installed? Or do I have it
all wrong?



peace,

I'm running the beta on a dual-boot system. Overall, I think it's pretty good 
for the first go-round but there are several pieces still missing. Many 
people have reported problems with sound, you can't yet burn CDs, there are 
some packages still to be added, etc.

I'm booting into 8.0 using GRUB. (I don't know about LILO, but I had no 
trouble installing GRUB.) I certainly didn't have to use a boot diskette.
