It leads me to an infinite cycle boot to my bios
I had to reinstall the previous version
I'm not terribly surprised, since it won't even compile as released. There was no way it was going anywhere other than /testing... if it doesn't even build, what other bugs were included?
After testing in a VM first I installed 2.12 on my main machine and all is good. I did have to tweak Richard Cranium's 09_slackware_linux script that I like to use, I disable 10_linux since his script gives a cleaner menu IMO. The script still worked but was giving some deprecation warnings. After a small tweak the script works fine again with no warnings.
