Good morning, Paul.
That's what I mean. I installed using the out-of-the-box DVD ISO image,
both in VMware Workstation and on a separate machine with DVD drive. Both
of them installed with no problem and booted right up. I have since
upgraded both to the newer released kernel and that works fine, too. I
have also run Software Updater on both, as recently as two days ago, and
updated everything for which there was an update available (that's
something I normally don't do... if it ain't broke don't fix it and all of
that, so I usually just upgrade the things I need or that are flagged as
security issues). Everything (that I have used so far) continues to Just Work.
The kernels may be buggy in ways I haven't run across yet, but as for
booting up, absolutely no problem...
I'm just trying to understand why some are having nothing but problems and
others just breeze right through.
