Hi, Well, we have all beaten the new installer to death, I have some other flames on the new system... NOTHING SEEMS FIXED AS PER CHANGES DOCS!!!! From little stuff to large stuff! Example: Docs say Responder will now ask for name for 'Mac' instead of 'Workstation' as 'Apple doesn't make workstations HEHEHE' (Quote). Well, after my installation I was greeted by message "Please name your workstation" ????? Docs say Ether usage for Appletalk will no longer interfere with printer port. Well, it still does!! I see no difference on the serial port already opened even though I use an Etherport II Board... Apple, any comments? ================================================================== Phil Hunt "Wherever you go, there you are!!!"

I, too, noticed a number of problems with 6.04. Enough that I went back
to 6.03.
Two of the more troublesome were that windows were not being
repainted/refreshed as they should have been (but closing the window and
reopening it fixed the problem) and disk access hangs (the Mac would hang
while continuously accessing the hard disk).
I installed 6.04 twice, once over 6.03 and once after trashing the old
system files. The problems didn't go away until I went back to 6.03.

I believe that you need to do one of two things to get the new responder: 1. install AppleShare from the customize screen 2. install it manually. Hope this helps. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---+ | Disclaimer: Apple has no connection with my postings. | +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---+ Byron Han, CommToolbox Scapegoat "DeAnza 3 - R.I.P. - 10/17/89 5:04PM" Apple Computer, Inc. ----------------------------------------- 20525 Mariani Ave, MS 69L Internet: han@apple.COM Cupertino, CA 95014 UUCP:{sun,voder,nsc,decwrl}!apple!han ------------------------------------ GENIE:BYRONHAN CompuServe:72167,1664 ATTnet: 408-974-6450 Applelink:HAN1 HAN1@applelink.apple.COM --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---
