I feel bad about this one. I read the errata on 2.2.7, and it talks =
about the bug about loading X during installation. It's an easy fix, =
one that I've known for a long time. It's simply that a directory is =
missing. I haven't installed for a long time, so I don't quite =
remember, but I think it's /usr/local/bin or something. I could =
probably figure it out again. In fact, I'm going to be installing =
tonight, so I'll try to look it up. Just mkdir /usr/local/bin, or =
whatever directory it was, *before* trying to run X, and it will work =
fine.
I'm sorry about not posting this before, I guess I forgot because =
it's always so long between the time that I install, and the time that =
my machine is configured enough to read/send e-mail. Better late than =
never, eh? Please reply to me because I took myself off the mailing =
lists (I learned a lot, but it took way too much time to read it all)
Thank you,
Michael Porter
