Abandon the Marist system and start with something more modern, like Debian, or download either SLES 9 or RH 4 try-before-buys. Unless you're really in the mood to build your own distribution, you're in for a lot of work and pain for no real good purpose. The Marist distribution is interesting only for historical purposes. Don't use it for anything new. The restrictions on SLES and RH media distributions have eased to the point that it's not really worth arguing over it any more. Debian is also much, MUCH more modern than the Marist setup, and you'll be a lot happier. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
