I never realized that the first '/' after the hostname in an ftp url was ignored. I was having difficulty typing in the url, and the forth time I tried, I just typed "ftp://awfulhak.lan.awfulhak.org" (accident). It caught the core, said it was going to tidy up and gave me an ok. Every on the ok caused another core (evident on ALT-F2) ! The hostname was looked up ok (my nameserver only!), and I've been through media.c and ftp.c - everything looks fine.... I can't figure what actually caused the core. I havn't really time to try to repeat it either (it's 03:30 here - I've gotta be in work tomorrow :( ) Maybe you might want to duplicate my failure too :) I did another install with a good url and a bin & source & man distribution - went fine first time (ftp install, via a box running natd :) > Jordan -- Brian , Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour....
