Re: [Security Firewall] X11 problems?

Wait a minute. MNF doesn't need configurations on command-line. It's through 
web interface. And it's not a good idea to install X server on a highly 
secured firewall.

Cheers

Subject: [Security Firewall] X11 problems?


Hi,

Earlier problems about booting the distro CDROM and getting stuck that I
mentioned had to do
with an corrupt iso image of the mnf2beta2 CDROM, so please ignore.
Once I had a md5sum checked image, burned the right way with Nero these
problems were gone...
I am using an Openbrick NG machine with external USB disks from Lacie
for experimentation of MNF2.
I boot with an usbstick, read the distro from an USB disk and install
on another  USB disk.
The hardware and/or Mandrake had a very bad time guessing the geometry
of the external USB disk,
so I was not able to boot after the installation process.
During the installation process, I was not able to configure the X
server. The installer prompts with:
Choose an X server, than detects a server but than gives the error
message: Cant install XFree package.
The log file says:
* selecting packages XFree86-Server
* unkown 'XFree86-Server'
Would like to have X11 installed, because I don't want to configure the
firewall on the commandline!
Tomorrow I'll investigate further than this, using hardware with normal
IDE harddisks

regards -- hans bayle
