Description Russell Foster 2000-08-02 08:11:49 UTC
I was installing pinstripe beta via FTP install using pcmcia boot floppy.
Configured network and selected custom installation. Within X selected to
install WindowMaker and deslect X-Free-twm. Asked if I would like to
install dependancies. Said yes. Installation went through but at end when
was installing libProplist for WindowMaker anaconda complained. Dump log
below
