Is it possibel to use DHCP with the ftp install?. If not I have a problem with installation. I have downloaded boot image and wrote it to a disk. It boots fine. I then copied all bin, doc and manpages to my harddrive. During installation I select install from dos partition. I begins installing however when it gets to about part 65 of 69 it stops and give the error "Error -1 of 1024 bytes writing, cannot tranfer." It then moves onto docs and reads them just fine but when it done it give a similar error message. Then it installs the manpages without any problems whatsoever. Then the error message cannot find kernel image on drive you can't boot from it, and low and behold i can't either. -- ----- \ / X Jazcek "Don't mistake the lack of talent for genius." / \ - Peter Steele -----
