It installs from the CD fine, and I can ls-l /cdrom fine, but when I try to add ports or packages whatever, and nominate the CD as the distributin device, it tells me there is no CD. Any clues anyone? thanks Bob -- The China House. Advertise, or there's a good chance the sheriff will do it for you.
