FWIW I use two applications before installing any OS. They are: http://www.killdisk.com I kill the entire disk or at least the front end sectors and tracks before doing any install. http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php I create the (ext3) partitions first before loading the Live-CD then committing to the install. This process makes sure that I am dealing with a clean and completely empty drive. I never ever do an upgrade. > It means most users will download and install firefox > manually and disregard the effort of bundling the browser > with the operating system and all the integration work > that comes with that. This is true. > How else do you get your bookmarks into there? If you look down through the .mozilla hidden directory you'll find the working bookmarks.html file in there. You can edit that directly to add or remove bookmarks. But, that's a pretty horrible way to have to deal with this. > It not an occasional crash or something: its a show-stopper. I've found another Mozilla bug that's pretty serious and that has to do with the way Seamonkey handles Java and Flash plugins. In a Mandriva 2007 install you have a default Firefox and Epiphany install. You put the Flash and Java plugins in: /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and that works just fine for both of those Browsers. You then install the latest version of Seamonkey and you would expect it to pick up those plugins correctly, it does not. In fact if Seamonkey encounters a website with either Java or Flash it crashes. I believe the same thing happens on Ubuntu 6.10. I am still in the middle of testing the recently released Mandriva 2007 and have not got back to test these mozilla wrinkles again. FWIW Edgy Eft is looking really good.
