Hi,
I've installed Hoary Preview - a piece of Master Work, to be frank.
Installation went quite smoothly, there was only one problem: I've
formatted boot partition as xfs and there was no way, how to put
bootloader to MBR or some patrition. I tried it hard several times, but
neither GRUB nor LILO were able to finish installing. On the end I gave
it up, formatted boot partition as ext3 and installation had no problems,

After installation I encountered three main problems:
- - obvious problem with Radeon 9600 and DRI, I'm reading the list
- - can't switch to vc using Ctrl Alt FnX (F1,F2, etc.) - does it mean
these consoles are not used in Ubuntu?
- - can't add user to samba:
sudo smbpasswd -a kerka produces ask for password, but when I write it
(and for the second time the same), it finishes with no message and no
file /etc/samba/smbpasswd is created.

Any hints to the last two problems?

Thanks

Vlada
