well Sysinstall goes by the version that you have installed so if you update
your machine to patchlevel 5 sysinstall will change the OS to the -p5
instead of the base setting

Hi

Thanks for this, I actually did realise my mistake after the post. Mans 
installed :)


What does make me wonder is how or why sysinternal's option was set to 
7.0-RELEASE-p5 and / or could not work around it.


Anyway, its working, so im chuffed.

Thanks again for the reply

Kind Regards

Well you didn't install man pages since minimal install does not install
them. To get the man pages you have to change 7.0-RELEASE-p5 to just
7.0-RELEASE
