Barry, When I got my copy of Lindows it came with *two* CDs, the one you can boot from called "Lindows Demo" (which is the one you got from Chipp) and another called "Lindows Install" which allowed for installation of Lindows on a hard drive.

Okay, the boot CD does boot but how does one actually install it? Whatever resources are on the CD simply lock up the "My Computer" window as well as the "File Manager" app. At this point, Lindows an amusing party trick but if I can't install it and see how it runs from a HD, it's not a very effective sales tool. BTW, the .iso image is an older build (4.0.471); 4.0.58...something is the latest. Not meaning to be too harsh but were we given the equivalent of an AOL CD? Chipp, please feel free to pass along my comments to the Lindows folks. I'd love to try it and even try building an app for it but I'm dead in the water right now. One other question: I saw a comment here on the list about how a *nix distribution requires some sort of additional "build, etc." once it's sitting on a user's HD. Does this mean that it would require a user to possess *nix knowledge to install an app I build in Rev beyond "double-click this installer" or "drag this to your hard drive"? -------------------------------------------------------- Barry Jay Levine "The Mac Guy" Macintosh Troubleshooting, System Engineering, Training, AppleShare/OSX Server Setup, System Upgrades and Enhancements, Custom Programming for Mac/Windows/Linux/Solaris On-Site service for K20, Business, Consumer Phone/VoiceMail: 915-581-1105 Fax: 915-581-8167 eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
