Man, your LiveCD(2.30) boots PERFECTLY and your mkfs.reiser4 also, in v2.30!

I've installed a lot of machines using "Stage 1on3 with GCC 3.4.4" and your 2.30 RR4.
It's strange why the Reiser4 in the 2.60.3 doesn't work equally good...

Thanks again,
Phk

Phk, please wait until RR4 2.60.4 is out. I've changed the kernel and updated reiser4progs to 1.0.5. Can you wait a little bit more

?

lxnay,

Will the even newer patch (2.60.4) allow the Installer feature to work properly, or at least start?
It seems there's more and more people who can't get it to even start, including me.
Whatever is needed to get it going should be done as soon as you can.

I wouldn't mind just patching my current ISO to your new version and re-burn a DVD with that.

If you want to pay me full time

I can do what you like more

GLI is ALPHA!! And that's not the main features of RR4.

Hey I download the iso

Only I can't install it the harddrive When I get to: 2 Partitioning it says:

"There was an error loading one or more drives' partition table. Possible causes are running as a normal user or partitions being out of disk order"

Anyone has a suggestion on how to solve this?

You don't know what you're talking about. Have you ever seen a LiveCD that has anaconda, too?

Please be patient, GLI will grow and will grow a lot in RR4 2.60.4

In 2.60.4, Would the GLI be able to install the liveDVD to special partition???
Thanks a lot for your great work.

mumble... i think that your partition table got corrupted, try to do (as root), fdisk and see if it reports problems.

Hey thanks for the reply! I don't think it is the partition table because every other OS installs just fine!

how can install rr64 dvd 2.50 in my hd?

playfool · Post by **playfool** » Tue Nov 01, 2005 4:55 am

See now lxnay made me go out and buy a very nifty Plextor DVD burner just to try this out.. sadly downloading the torrent will take 3 days.

lxnay · Post by **lxnay** » Tue Nov 01, 2005 7:54 am

RR4 2.60.3 to 2.60.4 xdelta is out. Check on my website !

I still have to download one iso image.. might as well be the newest one instead of the old one and an xdelta.

The good news is that I'm pumping out 33kb/s steadly, the bad news is that downloading is at a staggering 0kb/s, I'm guessing the primary seeder is on a slow connection.

Please retry now. As usual, scarlet FTP has truncated the file. I'm trying to download it again
it should have this md5:
