Ok. But I'm curious what that would do? I don't know what context this is in. But, it sounds useful. Might you give a breif example when someone might need/want to use this.

Thanks, Curtis

Ok, I got a reply from suse-support. The line in the docs where it says to install with Yast1, typoe yast1 at the boot prompts is incorrect. The answer is, you need to type manual, not yast1.

Just in case anyone else needs to know this.

This is the original post I made to the lsit about the problem. The docs say to stat yast1 type "yast1" at the boot prompt. This doesn't work. Typing "manual" there is what is needed, Um, same prob here,but what do you mean you "aborted" yast2? I hit OK when it told me I didnt have enough memory for yast 2. I didn't get yast1, I got a text version of yast2. Annd Yes, StarTux/Matt, I did type yast1 all lc at the prompt. I tried various cases and yast without the number. I tmakes no diff whether cd 1 or cd 2 is in the drive. If cd 2 is in, it asks for cd 1. Oh and I am booting from the boot floppy, old box, no cd boot. I emailed installation support and have not heard yet. When I do I will pass it along. -- Bob Rea Fear of Hell is pernicious; So is fear of Heaven. rear@sirius.com http://www.sirius.com/~rear
