^^^^^^^^^^^
I am sure that I am not the only one who is confused by this error message.
I overread the (ignored) part of the message and assumend that it was a
genuine error. Nothing about this is mentioned in either UPDATING or README
and it has cost me about one day to get things straight again. A quick note
in UPDATING about this could have saved me a lot of time and energy.
But I still get signal 12 exceptions when trying to installworld.
It seems to me that the install process still uses my old kernel and I am
not able to load the new one. Could anybody please tell me how to achieve
this?
Regards
Christian
