Well my problem was that the system I wanted to overwrite had a defect CDrom, but was still running something like 4.x without rpc.lockd really working. Why don't know .... But since I was desperate to upgrade I stopped the installprocess to replace lockf with a dud shellscript. That got me thru. I'm sure it is needed for one reason or another, but would be nice it one could overrule it. --WjW
