No, no... even though you have a CD-ROM with the stuff, you're not installing from CD-ROM in the sense YaST means. I assume you loaded from CD in the MP3000, and now that you have the network up you take the CD to a Linux machine on your network, and then use the install via FTP or NFS. I think you could even use the AWSFBA emulated I/O driver to get the .iso image of the CD into the S/390 partition as a 3370 type device (at least that works for P/390). Unfortunately OS/2 does not allow you to do it straight from the CD-ROM (and ASWFBA wants it to be writeable if I recall correctly). If you only have the CD you can use another Linux machine to make an iso image from it with the 'dd' command. If you started off with a downloaded iso image you can ftp that to the OS/2 disk and use it. Rob
