I bought a 30GB drive to use as a production drive for my system. I now have
3 drives I can switch between using a frame kit (very cool). Anyway, I
installed Hail on it using the Open 2.0.2 release and have a couple
problems.
1) I performed a custom installation. The partition tool would not let me
create a partition smaller than 300 MB. I often use a 20 MB partition for
/boot and a different partition for / (root). Why is that?
2) During the install, some of the install options (games and dev) had
strange characters for the labels in the installer. These were the last two
option in the installer tabs.
3) Now I notice that the time in the Gnome menu panel has the same strange
characters when you place your cursor over the time to get the rest of the
information. See http://www.csp.net/~carlc/badchars.jpg for a screen shot.
4) I could not tell the installer that my system clock uses UTC for the
date. I didn't see it anywhere at install time. So How do I tell it to use
UTC now? Remember I switch between 3 drives and can't be changing my date
every time.
5) the installer chose to use the CDrom (set as Master) on /dev/hdc as the
link for CDROM instead of the one found as a slave on /dev/hdb. Why is that?
Both are burners, one for LUG use and one personal. I want my personal one
to be the default. This is easily changed by changing the symlink, but still
I think it should have used /dev/hdb.
Are any of these issues addressed in the now released 2.0.4?
