 Hi,

  However, when I was installing the OS via floppies only, shouldn't the

 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

 I assume you already have many replies, but if not, download and
 install man-db.deb package.

Is your ps/2 microchannel?  Linux doesn't support it.

Re: Why is PPP so screwed up!?!?!

1997-03-02 Thread Gary Lee

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...

   refresh my memory.
 
   Also why are not all boot message logged into /var/log/messages ?
 
   Thanks.
