Did you burn the CD w/ Rockridge extensions? You need this to preserve UNIX-style permissions/ownership. Or check than man pages for mount to force all files to be executable (man -o exec?), but this might cause other problems. Better burn another CD w/ Rockridge extensions na lang. -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
