Re: [Announcement] GoboLinux 015 alpha

Hi there,
the LiveCD works quiet well. Even X starts - yay :)
The installer won't work with (at least) the german qwertz layout. It won't
work with qwerty. The error message:
[Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'/System/Links/Shared/Installer/TestingInputs/keymap
There is not even a /S/L/S/Installer dir.
Creating the Directories and touching the files won't work, as it can't
find many needed Files either.
'SymlinkProgramm Installer' won't fix this error.
Starting the bin from /P/Installer/Current/bin won't work either (doh!)

InstallPackage tells me "gobo" is not root. Wich is true, but gobo is
Superuser anyways :).
Compile is in line w/ InstallPackage with the rights.

So that's it for today. I hope I will find some time to do some digging in
the next few days. Thanks a lot anyway :)

Jonas Neumann
