I've created the installation disk if that's what you are taking about. However on installation it stops at the configure mouse section. It gives me a menu button to carry on installation but nothing works (apart from setting the root password). I also can not make a boot floppy, it asks me to put the floppy in the drive but does not write anything to the disk. Does anyone know what's up with it?
I got the boot disks ok and got it to install via http from hensa, took bloody ages though, any one know why sunsite has the directories but not the files??
I complained to Sunsite (wizards@sunsite.org.uk) about this 2 days after RH6 was released. He asked me to detail what was missing; I did and gave up after detailing about the 12th directory which needed to be redone. I told me there was so much missing that they really needed to refresh the 6.0 directory totally. I never received a reply.
I have seen a message on /. that at least one other mirror has the same problem (could even be sunsite.org.uk).
I guess they're either having problems or can't be arsed to do anything about it (I'll place a bet on the former, I think :).
I suggest people on this list start complaining to them.
Er, forget all that. They appear to have the files now.
