One of the things that I noticed about the install procedure was that it didn't list all the packages that could be install on the system. So I went into the package's directories did an ls and proceeded to type: pkg_add .... Also, some us want the entire core distribution to be installed and not have to wait five or twenty minutes to type yes to for the next package to be install. At any rate, I am not going to start a flame feast about this and providing "decent" user friendly net apps. I can only irritate people so many times so I better pick my topics carefully. (Kind of like the little boy who cried wolf too many times :) ) Peace & Hack Amancio
