That part needs to be made a tad more clear to the user/installer. For example, you should mention that with some sort of message "You have selected packages from the 2nd and 3rd CD sets, these will not be installed initially until after the system has been brought to init x (1 or 2?) and then you will be prompted for those CDs. Currently, the first CD is being used as a live file system and cannot be unmounted"
Currently YaST says: "You cannot switch media (e.g. CD) using this installation mode. Any selected packages not presently accessible will be noted for later installation." I understand we should find a text which is better understandable.... Any proposals? ;-)
Perhaps the current message is ok, and what is needed is flashing lights! How about a red flashing warning message!:-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hubert Mantel wrote:
YaST could determine the kernel itself based on the information about the modules the user has loaded in linuxrc.
Let the computer do the work I always say!
I think many "bugs" will turn out as "I'm not used to do it this way". People in the USA are used to RedHat and Slackware. If something with S.u.S.E. works in a different way, many people consider it a bug. This is understandable. Of course we do have bugs. And will ever have ;-)
