Why has this become so bad? I've installed Linux since around the Red Hat 5 days, and the install process was always rather clear. You had a slow 0 to 100% of queued packages progress bar slowly advancing above a percentage of the progress of current package being installed. You could see that it was doing something, you could see what it was doing. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
