Yeah, it bounced from the list...I think the listserver didn't like my
digital signature for some reason.  :p

Anyway, as I remember you can only set it before installation.  I had =
used
the 'Other' setting at first also, but that definitely didn't work.  Is
there a setting for Unixware?  Give that a try instead.

can I do it after the installation? I thought I can only do it before... =
If
I remember I've set it to "other" (there was no freebsd in the list).
