RE: [cobalt-users] HELP: installing Webmin & Usermin on Cobalt RAQ4r

[Arthur Sherman <arturs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Zeffie
Nice to meet you.

I used to rpm -Uhv <URI> and it seemed to go just fine. But when I looked at
"Boot and Shutdown" module later I mentioned about ten webmin's and so many
usermin's each complaining about bad install, saying, "stopped on runlevel
#", each on different one. Uninstall leaves a lot of garbage too. This never
happened on pure Linux box. As I am quite a newbie to Linux world I get
confused many times, and webmin is easy way to learn to set things up the
right way. I believe I'll stick to it meanwhile.

A feedback has been sent to Cameron. If someone would benefit from it - good
for all of us.

Btw, I saw the list of your packages - impressing indeed.
