Re: GhostBSD 3.5-BETA2 is now available!

Too tired after my ride today to concerntrate on the install process, so I've just had a quick look at the Openbox setup.
I like it, it's really nice, more my kind of setup. :D

So, I'll have a good night's sleep & run the installer tomorrow.

Re: GhostBSD 3.5-BETA2 is now available!

I tried both versions today, live was OK, but when I tried installing it quit after the partitioning stage.

I can't remember quite what, but I will take another go at installing both again & make notes.
I will get back to you.

(I was busy swapping all my hard drives over today.)

Beta2 32bit & 64bit run live OK, but still seems to be trouble with the installation script.

Re: GhostBSD 3.5 feedback

Got around to an install attempt today, using the 32bit beta1 pendrive image.
Installed to my 64Gb SSD OK.
I used 'Custom' to create a 9000Mb slice. Then installed to that, went quite smoothly.
Nice work on the new installer. :)
(Also, a 'thumbs up' to whoever created the new look.)

The problem appears to be a missing library, /usr/local/libharfbuzz.so.0 Running 3.5 i386 Beta1 live pendrive...
