Nothing turns people off like an OS that doesn't install. It should CERTAINLY be turned off on the install CDs and floppies! It was VERY frustrating to boot the CD on my laptop and have it crash after a few minutes. Kinda hard to get a crash dump, either. APM was never on by default in the past. Why should we have ACPI on on the install disks? R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
