So far I've been really impressed with 0.6.3, the only problem I've found so far is one nice thing in .61-.62 (might have even shown up earlier) was that when doing the hdinstall it passed the correct vga information in lilo from startup to the installed version, in .63 the information wasn't passed and I had to do it by hand.  I will admit that I ran through the install process rather quickly and may have skipped something by accident.

for those that want to know how open /etc/lilo.conf the first line reads something like:
vga=791
this is good for 1024x768, but I need 800x600 (old laptop) so I changed it to:
vga=787

then run lilo after you save
