I got docs ready to go beta. But that's not important right now.
I realized that if we went beta installing something pre 8.4.11, non
pentium machines would lose taking their update to 8.4.11.
So I asked Garry to update the RPMs on charon. We generated a new
hdlist, but something's broken, and an install doesn't get past the
spash-screen. Garry backed out the changes we made so we don't leave
it broken overnight, but we need to get this resolved.
It turns out when we test that we don't get past the spash screen without
the upgrade. The upgrade's still backed out, but with the hdlist,
it'll be quick to put back.
Alex: feel free to bug people to put stuff on charon. I believe anyone
on the list charon-maintainers can help you...
In other news, the docs we have ready (and where they belong, but aren't
yet) are:
/afs/sipb/project/doc/ilinux/linux-net-install/rh-net-install.ps /mit/sipb/doc/
/afs/sipb/project/doc/ilinux/linux-net-install/rh-net-install.dvi /mit/sipb/doc/
/afs/sipb/project/doc/ilinux/press-release/press-release.html /mit/linux/www/FAQ/top.html
The latter sucks, and needs lots of stuff adding, but will do for now.
