Thanks - I got that one at least figured out. :P   I have an rpm built
and on my usb key ready to go.

I think on the others, since I'm installing from the Linux-Magazine
DVD, I'll stick with the included sources instead of mucking about
much.  I'll go from there.

Right now reinstalling - currently downloading online repositories in
preparation to wipe the partitions.

Wow - 10.1 to 10.2 was not this difficult!
