Brand new install of SuSE 7.1 When I fire up yast as root and select Package Management -> Change/Create Configuration or Package Management -> Load Configuration I get the following error. Program aborted! Thu Aug 30 9:02:08 2001 ERROR: Unknown Error!, DETAIL: 0 FILE: PkgRetriever.cc LINE: 616 I manually copied over a fresh copy of the /suse/a1/yast.rpm file from the install CD's and executed: 'rpm -Uhv yast.rmp --force' But yast still dies with the same error. My only recourse now is to fdisk/format/re-install from scratch, much like a Microsoft solution. I cannot easily rebuild this system as it has numerous users on it 24x7 and it's inconvenient and embarrassing that SuSE Linux is having this problem. Anybody got any ideas (SuSE??) before I do the Redmond solution? -jpg
