Just out of curiousity I thought I'd check out a minimal graphical installation. I came across a couple of surprises.
It has been communicated that minimal graphical installation only requires cd1. At the desktop chooser screen I clicked other > then minimal graphical install. To my surprise I could see at the package installation screen that cd2 is needed. I figured this might be because I chose Danish language. After installing from cd1 the machine reboots and then asks for cd2 - about 18 megs of packages are installed - none of them having to do with Danish localization - instead the packages installed are among others windowmaker, glibc, rsync, xmset, lsb. I assume this is a bug - but since I've never done a minimal graphical install before I thought it might be me who messed up or misunderstood something. Shall I report it? The other thing that really caught me by surprise was that the installation correctly identified my Phillip 17" tft, 1280x1024. When I installed beta6 on the exact same hardware the other day (KDE standard installation) it threw a 15" no name monitor 1024x768 at me - beta4 and 10.0 do the same thing - but somehow minimal graphical installation of beta6 gets it right. cb400f --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
