Hi,

must admit I do have a somewhat "exotic" hardware:
a 486DX2/66 with 16MB Ram, no CDROM, a 800MB Harddisk

The installation procedure fails at a certain point to create the directory /ramdisk/tmp

But it manages to create a link /tmp to that directory which later on creates trouble because the target dir is not in place.

This also happened with a "dsl 2" startup into runlevel 2

Only after creating the /ramdisk/tmp dir manually I could make it through the next steps of the dsl-hdinstall procedure.

Is this a bug or is my hardware simply too exotic?

Kind Regards

Michael

Hi,

I tried version 3.0.1, which I downloaded this Monday (13-Nov-2006). Will come back asap with my experience of the current version.

Kind regards

Michael

Exactly the same error with the 3.0.1 on a p233 with 80M. This is a bug in the install script.
