Thanks for all the info Eric. I need to free up some time and try these options out.
I did download and try the Blair foull source install CD, but it gave me trouble. First after choosing my packages to install, the install GUI crashed ..."error 217 Fatal error: GUI installer crashed" These after continuing with the install it started giving me TONS of Checkdir Errors. I thought that the full source version of Blair's CD had all the packages needed onboard. Confused by this. BTW... the Blair's CD is a heck of a lot better to follow than the current FreeDOS CD. Menus are easy to understand and they dont autorun defaults in a heartbeat. Not sure why the freedos developers decided to do it that way. Personally, I dont understand why there is an autorunning default to any of these menus anyway. A menu is there to give the user a choice. Most of the time the choice is critical or at least specific to the users needs. Myself...I do several things at once, so when I boot an install CD, I dont want it getting ahead of me when I wasnt looking or checking of the pizza is burning. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/re%3A-FreeDOS-beta9-sr-2-install-troubles-t1536175.html#a4220932 Sent from the FreeDOS - User forum at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
