Hi all. <mode=sheepish> I found the problem. I had a faulty version of (both) the disk 1 and disk 2 iso's. this must have occured during ftp'ing the isos from the local site and I didn't bother checking the MD5s - it has been so long since I have had a faulty ftp download.... anyhoo, I will now be using an automatic checksum checking ftp program recommended by a friend. all this was made far less identifyable by also having an intermittently faulty RAM chip on one of the 4 boards.... the board I chose to start on first. anyhoo, you live and learn and relearn and relearn and forget and relearn again.... -- Dr Paul van den Bergen Centre for Advanced Internet Architectures caia.swin.edu.au pvandenbergen@swin.edu.au IM:bulwynkl2002 "And some run up hill and down dale, knapping the chucky stones to pieces wi' hammers, like so many road makers run daft.
