I had no trouble along these two lines. HOWEVER, I couldn't get the installer to find the installatiopn CD after booting from it, regardless of IDE or SCSI CDROM drive. Also, neither the SYM/NCR driver(s) nor the DAC960 driver were included, making the install machine selection much smaller... The above problems occurred with both ISOs. --Jay++ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jay A Estabrook HPTC - LINUX support Hewlett-Packard Company - MRO1-2/K15 (508) 467-2080 200 Forest Street, Marlboro MA 01752 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
