From: "Paul A. Scott" To: , Cc: Subject: Re: misc/39394: 4.6 does not run as VMware guest OS Date: Thu, 15 Aug 2002 20:00:04 -0700 The new 4.6.2 update release seems to have solved the problem. I downloaded the iso cd image, and the installation proceeded without a hitch. My sincerest thanks to those responsible for fixing the problem. It is quite unfortunate however that the 4.6 CD's were pressed with this bug, which doesn't give FreeBSD a good name for first time installers and makes me think twice about keeping my CD subscription. This isn't the first time my CD subscription didn't work until patches became available. Guess I need to look into becoming a beta tester :) Paul To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
