I attempted an installation from the 5 CD version of SuSE 10.1 Remastered, released a couple of weeks back. It couldn't get a file it needed on CD1 (gettext), I told it to retry, nota, ignore, hoping it would continue, nope, it droped into the text screen to report we had an error, yeh, we tried installing SuSE 10.1 Remastered. Only thing I could do at this point was restart the installation. Not going there today :-( Already, the install had cost me an hour, lost! Hope 10.2, when finally released, is a little more friendly. It was my understanding that one reason 10.1 was remaster was to fix the installer? FYI, I run the original 10.1 on a machine at home, it is my main computer, and other than the updater issues which have been fixed and I was able to work around without any great concern but it really bothers me that things like this continue to occur with the installer. Oh, it was a fresh install as well, media verified.
You should call your local Microsoft rep and complain about it.** Sorry guys, I am not trying to troll, but you all saw this one coming up 5th avenue with a big neon sign on it. -- jjgitties, "*We* need to convince OpenSUSE to fork, or let 'em die. To bad, it is a wonderful Distro. But their parent company is NOT our friend."
