Hi everyone,

I have a couple of questions, and a problem.

The first question is regarding installing RedHar 5.0 from SCSI CDROM.
I have the RedHat PowerTools set (Six CD's).  I created my boot disk and
went through the install, but it only got as far as installing packages
when it would hang.  I tried it several times, and it hung at various
packages.  I.E. one time it might make it through 90% of the packages
before hanging, then another time it might only make it through 20%.  I
finally got it installed by doing a minimal install.  Does anyone know
what might've caused something like this?  I've been fooling around with
it since then, and haven't had any more hangups (with the computer at
least ;).

Another question about the SCSI drives.  I can mount them up from root,
and I've modified /etc/fstab to mount them up just like I do from the
root # prompt, but they never mount at startup (even for root).  I get a
message to the effect 'file system format iso9660 not supported'.  I'm
not at the RedHat box, and that is from memory.  Should /etc/fstab mount
them up?  Is it possible that the kernel doesn't support SCSI, but when
I mount them manually it loads the module?

Any way, on to my problem.  I wanted to set up my network card, but
couldn't at install.  I wanted to compile the ne2k.c program that I
found referenced in the networking HOWTO, but it looks like only part of
G++ got installed.  There's no stdio.h (and three others that I don't
recall off hand) in /usr/include.  Somebody on IRC let me download them
from him, but there are more referenced in /usr/include/gnu and some
other subdir.  Anyway, how can I get all of the proper include files
installed so that I can compile in C?

Thanks in advance,
