SuSE 8.0

[Jerry Feldman]

I installed SuSE 8.0 on my laptop the other day from DVD. My initial 
install had some I/O errors on some packages. After some problems, I 
decided to perform the installation a second time. The second installation 
was successful. Everything came up properly. So far no glitches with 8.0. 
After install, I performed an online update to get all the patches. One 
issue is that when downloading the patches it complains that GPG is not 
installed. BTW: SuSE has an online update feature that allows you to easily 
update your system to the latest patch level. You can select which patches 
you want to upgrade (manual update) or just select all (auto update).
