Hey Group;
I noticed a new problem with Yast at the selection part of an install. That is that it wants a /media/floppy (default setting) to export or save the user.sel file on. Problem is there is not a /media directory so if fails. I went to an alternate tty# and did mkdir which fixed the problem, Yast then would either write to a FAT or ext2 floppy to the default fd0.
I never saw this or may be just ignored it, I haven't got a floppy drive on the laptops and I didn't have a floppy in the drive on this box. There used to be a very long pause where (8.2 - 9.2) it was looking for a file on a floppy, don't think i saw that on 9.3.
Well Sid;
You and I have the same ASUS A7N8X-E MB (as I remember). However, the need of the floppy drive was for a SuSE9.3 configuration disk. I always do that to circumvent the need to reselect all of the programs I want to install. This is done in case something fails. It is found during a Manual Selection > File > Export.
OK, I see, learned something new today, thanks. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ... Hamradio License G3VBV, Keen licensed Private Pilot Retired IBM Mainframes and Sun Servers Tech Support Specialist Microsoft Windows Free Zone - Linux for all Computing Tasks
