I did it, and it seems to have worked. There was no X installed on the box. Now I want to install X on it, from the 3.3.3 CDroms that recently arrived. What incantations do I use to do this? The "Custom" install simply loops between the custom install screen and the media page. If I use the Index and select the parts I want, the Commit doesn't find anything. I can't run the "extract" program from the XFree86 subdir because it's an executable and the eXecute bit isn't set. I haven't found anything in the docs on the CD, either.
