14 Achim, thanks for the update. I got through most of the install and was
15 hoping to report success, but my boot partition was corrupted on reboot so
16 the boot process halts on a kernel panic. Since this seems to mean I'll be
17 starting over (I will save my modifications in /etc), I'm going to get the
18 updated rc4_pre2. Achim and Daniel, could you make sure that the update
19 includes Achim's new initdisk.gz (the images folder in rc4_pre2 seems not to
20 have been updated, so I'm wondering if the ISO has).

22 Thanks, Murthy
