Hi, using Debian Etch snapshot from May 1st, 2006 I found the following errors: 1. The installer is buggy. When installing from DVD it only points to debian mirrors, not to a local resource as intended. 2. I did not manage to find a way to install Gnome and / or kde by a menu point. The installer only performs a standard basic system installation and leaves the rest to the experienced user. It is really very tricky to perform a successful installation at all. 3. Only with the "install" I managed to work successful, the "expert" one did not succeed at all to install a basic system. There is no appropriate timeout for the installer looking for mirrors. There should be a timeout after a couple of seconds when, during installation from CD or DVD, no mirror is not found or wanted at all. 4. Ubuntu 5.10 is much older, not only as far as the kernel is involved, but Ubuntu´s installer is far more convenient and intuitive than the actual Debian Etch one. Is there any time window when this installer will be fixed? 5. Ark needs an eternity to open a complete kernel. Furthermore it does not open kernel patches at all (*.tar.bz for example). Moreover by clicking on such a kernel patch in Mozilla Ark does not open at all.
So far the error list that at least I managed to find out. The images being downloaded by using jigdo are OK and error-free. And the system runs fine so far! Thank You all: good work above the mentioned errors. 6. I am missing xine-ui and the latest kaffeine package. Uwe -- GMX Produkte empfehlen und ganz einfach Geld verdienen!
