Patrick Try looking on cd number six, in suse/zq2. One thing that can help you in searching for a specific package is the archives file on the first cd. Mount the first cd, and then ungzip the file called ARCHIVES.gz to some directory. After you do that, you can search for what you need using grep. I found the location of the kernel sources by using this command: grep 'CD6' ARCHIVES | grep 'kernel' I am using SuSE 8.0, so the location of the kernel sources might be different for you. hth, Kevin

No need to unzip it. Try: mount /cdrom zgrep kernal /cdrom/ARCHIVES

mount /cdrom zgrep kernal /cdrom/ARCHIVES
The command above won't find anything unless "kernel" is spelled correctly. Jim

Thanks! I hadn't known about zgrep. Kevin
