Yeah, I decided to go for the Universal install since it has stage |
2 |
files. Seemed that the Minimal didn't. I'd forgotten that. |

The AMD64 will be nicer to install from. I'm getting 65MB/S DMA on the |
5 |
hard drive whereas the x86 Universal didn't have the right chipset |
6 |
stuff and I was only getting 2.5MB/S. |

Two problems I've seen with the AMD64 Universal CD so far: |
9 |
|
10 |
1) Console #2 doesn't go to a console. It stays with the boot up |
11 |
graphics. I have to use Alt-Ctl-F3 to get to a second terminal. |
12 |
|
13 |
2) The path in the login message telling you how to start links to get |
14 |
the install docs is incorrect. |
15 |
|
16 |
Both pretty minor. |

|
18 |
Install underway if I can get comfortable with LVM2.... |
