    Status: Answered => Open

Agustin Lobo is still having a problem:
Jonathon,

Please have a look to questions
#46189 and #46190 also.

I've finally installed everything under sdb,
leaving the rest unchanged (by now).
I also like the system. The only problem is
that I forgot running the program for
the virtual disk space under Xandros, guess
cannot do it now from ubuntu-eee
Otherwise the system seems to be working fine.
Let me know which testing you want me to do.

Agus
