I left a lot of things off .... Trying to get the install down under 200
megs... but I didnt leave anything off that said "REQUIRED" You have to make
about 200 decisions during install, if you do it in menu mode, it takes a
long time, if you do it in expert mode, less, but you dont get descriptions
of each package, just one line of text. The glibc I mention below was part of
the programming disk sets, which I didnt need, but there is a giibc in the
base disk set that I had needed (but it didnt say required....) Anyway, now I
know that there are atleast 2 packages that are required, but it doesnt
mention it in slack 7 or 8.
Didnt I mention that it doesnt boot?
