I tried using yast2, but apparently there is no way to tell it how you want the partitions laid out, which I find hard to believe. I have an IDE hard drive in the machine with Red Hat, and put in a new SCSI hard drive to install Suse on. However, when I told it I wanted to install Suse on sda1, with the intention of using the swap partition already existing on hda4, it insisted on creating a swap partition on sda. I could see no way of changing it.
I had the same problem today also, but the docs say this, Yast2 does alot more guessing, if you have a specific set of partitions you want to use (and you do) use the original yast (boot from disk 2)
When running yast during installation, I wish it told me what was different about the package configurations. What is "Office server"? There were so many packages selected it would not fit on my 2G drive. I
Same problem yast2 apparently asks less questions, and assumes more, I also couldn't fit 'Defailt' plus a couple of add-ons on my 2 gig either I suppose using yast 1 will give more flexability.
found it very hard to go in and out of the package lists deselecting packages I didn't want, including some with German documentation.
Cut and paste did not work in KDE. right-click and chording both brought up a popup menu.
Yeah, me too. Why doesnt cut and paste work correctly? I think that 3-button emulation is not quite right. I wish that CTRL-C and CTRL-V worked as part of KDE, and not just in specific tools that support it it like Netscape or emacs. marlon -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
