The last distribution tryed (just now) was Fedora-17
(07/2012), a live TDE
CD that is doing the best by far. But here, at the time of installation:
- Unable to change (select any other) disk to install the boot loader
- Can not format in an other format than ext4 (no ReiserFS).
- Alert at end of installation: "Can not install the boot loader".
The cd that I used to boot one of my systems using GRUB1 do not know Ext4.
Consequently to boot Fedora is IMPOSSIBLE!
Hello,
It's true that the Fedora installer embedded with the LiveCD is
minimalistic.
Currently it cannot install on reiserfs, but I guess it's only because
the reiserfs-utils are not embedded in the LiveCD. I will have a look at
this.
Alternatively you can install Fedora 17 with the official Fedora DVD,
hoping it supports reiserfs, then install TDE from the internet repository.
Finally, I feel very overtaken by my readings in this
list for the USERS,
which speaks so much of INSTALLATION SCRIPTS. And if I well understand, a
lot of things changed in Linux: XWindow, SytV init, Grub, give up of
reiserfs for Ext4, KDE4& Gnome3, sound system, etc, etc...
My question is: OpenSuse is now made so low that I MUST DROP this
distribution.
Direct me to what?
Thank you very much for your work and help.
If you really want to stick with openSuse 11.4 and TDE, I can build TDE
3.5.13.1 ...
It should not be complicated since I already built for 12.2 .
