Re: [luau] cron vs. anacron, xinetd useful?

I've had problems like that before. Usually turned out to be a bad CD or the wrong cd. I'd start by booting the 1st cd on another machine(if you don't want to abort the install) and scanning/testing the 3 cds. That's a start. It should identify the cd label during the scan. Ted -Original
