You're right, it was the stepfile that I opened since the data dir variable is created from the name of the stepfile. > > If you have a very recent version, you should have a dir named > "steps_data" under "kvm_runtest_2", right next to "steps".

MSDN lists the md5 and maybe sha1 hashs for the isos on the website where they are downloaded. That iso works until the step where it needs to set the password for the user, and as we've discussed, without the original ppm files, I can't figure out why it fails to match that screen. -- Ryan Harper Software Engineer; Linux Technology Center IBM Corp., Austin, Tx [email protected] -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
