>Umm.. I burned it off tonight and I got this:
Like I said - I thought it had problems. I really hadn't tested it, just
built the thing and real life got in the way. I'll remove it from the site,
I think. I was just messing around at the point I built that image.
I must admit I've not been paying attention to this stuff lately - I was
waiting for the 1.5.1 release. I've got myself a 3000/800 to play with now,
and once I get it working it'll be doing some more builds. It currently
takes a touch under 24 hours to do a "make release" on my 300X.
Still, right now ... burning the cdhdtape image to CD should work fine -
I've installed a few machines that way. It wastes a lot of space, but how
expensive is a blank CD these days? Netbooting is good too, if you have
another machine handy.
I generally use cdhdtape on a CD-R to boot, then install via ftp from a
local server.
