- I try to reach Peter thru e-mail but the mail bounced back.
-
- I was happy with previous SLS package (.98pl2 ? ). Almost everything
- went fine. I expected similar thing from the new package (pl5), but
- it is not the case. Installing went fine (with some warning messages
- which I think I may ignore - these messages were reported by other
- users on this net). But after installation, Linux would not boot.
- After reporting partition information, the system just hangs and
- nothing happens. What is wrong ?
-
- I am in the process of going back to previous version after three
- tries and all this process is so time-consuming.
- I suggest to other users that they
- should expect this kind of accident and be prepared well.
-
- Thanks.
