I love the gnome it rocks!!!!
6.0 is excellent, even though I will have to find all my hardware and 
configure it.  I keep getting fatal error on isapnp.conf.  My first mistake 
was I commented with "*" instead of "#".

BUG!
When it installed LILO on the boot track, it turned my dos>16 partition 
into a type 82---linux swap  REAL BAD,  I had to reformat my windows 
partition.  All I did was select upgrade on the install program!  I am 
running western digital's ez drive.  8.4 gig.  2 gig was dedicated to 
linux, and the remainder was dos.  I double checked the partition program 
(not fdisk the other) and growable WAS NOT CHECKED. I never check it as I 
am playing too close to the edges.  It should have just put it on. The only 
thing I can think of is I expanded my memory from 16 meg to 64 meg, I had 
64 meg for the swap.  It may have wanted more for 6.0?
