The same exact physical livedvd booted on a different box does not get truncated. The

Hi, Does this report ring a bell here? I didn't check, but the image should carry an isohybridized 4.02 version of isolinux. The working (lenny) version is 3.71.

Dear all, (please Cc) yesterday I had two bugs with btrfs and ext3 occurrences, always happening when plugging in an external USB btrfs disk. Today I had a BUG which is purely ext3 related. The last bug was with yesterdays latest git checkout.

hello, the last 3 times I installed C5, the MBR was unchanged and nothing was written into /boot/grub except splash.xbm.gz there were no stage* files, nor a menu.lst I know how to fix that. Would I have better luck using a partition mounted as /boot? Anyone succeded with Grub that way? I prefer not having to do surgery to get C5 to boot :) -- Mark New Packages for C5 ---------
