I think there should be a user contributed repository so that any one can compile from source and upload for others' benefit.
I think there is a user repository but in german. is it possible to provide that user website/repository in multiple languages?

by the way, did u successfully installed and used gtalk plugin using rpm2targz command?
If yes, that would mean that even if any package is not available right now, we may get it in rpm or deb format and follow the same procedure to install?

I think for future releases, it is very important if the live and installation images can be merged. most of the distros are offering this way and it is really convenient.

I finally managed to install in my external drive after abandoning the idea of LVM. I created three physical partitions and it was installed correctly.

Thanks James, will try it today. I think with custom partitioning it should work. although last time i tried with custom partitioning but my focus was to install with LVM support. I tried to follow the article as mentioned by atolboo in the thread before.
By the way, these partitions (/, /home, /swap) were they physical or extended in your case?
I think by default Pardus installs LVM, however, with custom made standard partitions, LVM may be disabled???

I think there should be a workaround (such as modifying grub, etc.). If there is no way it can be installed on an external HD, then, in my opinion this qualifies as a bug

yes, checked the MD5 after download and then later on checked the integrity while installation. I believe it is becoz i am installing on an external HD (sdb1). I asked GRUB to be installed on sdb1 of course (or should i ask it to install GRUB on the 'partition where pardus is installed'?)
now when it is trying to find the logical volume inside the physical volume (sdb2) it is giving me errors, 'volume group not found'.

I tried to use the default option, i.e., full hard disk. still same error. I have two hds, one hd (sda1) inside laptop, the other external (sdb1). i am installing on the external one.
The error is as follows:
Reading all physical volumes No volume group found No volume group found resume: could not stat the resume device file ´/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv-swap´ Please type in the full path to try again or press ENTER to boot :'(
