even 9 was a bit like that i thought. still, it does have a lot of benefits over other leaders like fedora (much smaller install footprint, nicer gui for non power users etc)

well, i would say i have never had any real problems with apt in that respect (certainly the minor niggles that build up over time don't seem any worse than similar in yast)

did you have a swap partition on your harddrive at the time?
usually livecd's use them if they exist. It would be piss slow but it'd work.

a poem by my computer, Macintosh Vigilante
Macintosh amends a damned around the requested typewriter. Macintosh urges a scarce design. Macintosh postulates an autobiography. Macintosh tolls the solo variant. Why does a winter audience delay macintosh? The maker tosses macintosh. Beneath female suffers a double scum. How will a rat cube the heavier cricket? Macintosh calls a method. Can macintosh nest opposite the headache? Macintosh ties the wrong fairy. When can macintosh stem the land gang? Female aborts underneath macintosh. Inside macintosh waffles female. Next to macintosh worries a well.
