Bdickson2000 Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 you did burn them as images and not just write the files to the disc, right? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> of course, using k3b, CD>burn CD image <{POST_SNAPBACK}> When I was playing with Gentoo, they suggested a floppy boot manager called smart boot manager. It has solved my problems with CD's not booting. http://btmgr.webframe.org/ BD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madwifi is one example. BD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ixthusdan Posted May 2, 2005 Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Guys- Download the 10.2rc2 and install it. Configure your urpmi sourced to the 2005le tree. Upgrade the system. Stop waiting. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethraza Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Guys-Download the 10.2rc2 and install it. Configure your urpmi sourced to the 2005le tree. Upgrade the system. Stop waiting. B) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Before to read this I did something close to this... I upgraded my 10.1 installation with the 10.2rc2, so I used easy-urpmi and configured the LE2005 folders. So I used that to upgrade some little thing and installed the smart package manager and the ksmart or something. So I used smart to update all my system automagically. But the interface of smart is little poor in my opinion and I dont see that it is looking in cooker folders. Now I have a Mandriva Linux 2006.0 installed, but all looks good. The only thing I noticed is that when I click Shutdown my computer in the KDE, this is not shutdown, is only the same as Close session. But in KDM the shutdown is working, so its ok to me. I can say that Im a happy Linux users with Mandriva Linux. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solarian Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 well.. I don't think the devs have had the time to cook up some bugs from 10.2 stable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamw Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 I think we'd consider that an insult! LOTS of things are broken here!!! (wait, is that what I'm meant to say?) ;) actually, I agree, currently I can't seem to get any version of Acrobat or RealPlayer to run at all but everything else is currently pretty bug-free on Cooker.
