Linux is unique in itself. But installing it without an optical drive, floppy drive, USB drive boot, or netboot option on a laptop proves to be a difficult and amusing task.
Its really neat! My wifi works (Prism2 DWL122 usb) with the exception of never saving my network options.
Dillo and Opera crashed on everything then I realized that I forgot to set a swap file. >_< Made the partition, just didn't set it.
Now with the swap file, Opera works, GAIM works (really neat software installer system), and yeah. Im finally beginning to understand the linux file system and how the software works in comparison to windows.
Quirks I want to fix. *I asked in the network section about saving Prism2 options but if someone can answer faster here that would be nice.
*more advanced options? The control panel is nice and simple but um... im used to windows so it feels like im missing something in the control panel. I have seen something like xsetup.sh and similar references to edit boot options... where and how could I modify that?
*last question.. Is there a kismet in that software installer list?
Formatted and rebuilt it, so fixed the boot issues. Just the little questions remain ^_^
