Or do you still have to install man after you install the system ? If you installed from floppies only with no install from CD afterwards or from internet, you have probably only the base-system installed. So your computer is running with nothing but the plain OS. Man-db, X11 and all the other things are still missing. Therefore, could someone please tell me if there is a way to install man via floppies. I'm using an ancient 486 and it only has a hd and 1.44 floppy drive. I'd appreciate any help and thanks again to all those who replied to my previous message. Hmm, it is hardly possible to do with floppies. The *.debs are not optimised to fit on a floppy, e.g. kernel-sources are 12 MB or so large. Do you have a possibility to use a modem or get CDs? The problem is, that with a plain base-install, there is still quite a bunch of packages missing which are necessary to fulfill dependencies. Usually you have to install several additional packages to make one package run. Regards, Kerstin -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null

Re: Why is PPP so screwed up!?!?!
I think you all have very good points. I have used 3 different ISPs and had to set them up 3 different ways. I would be lovely if PPP could figure out how to connect to the ISP and what I want to do with it--without me telling it (but thats not FUN). I don't think anyone is saying that PPP is broken, just that it could use a little polish. Until some dear soul has the time and inclination to add to the good work already done, we will have to help each other. I do believe that's why this list exist. And thats all I have to say about that... Gary Lee
