I got the mounting thing handled. Thanx y'all. Now... for my Xwindows prob(s). I finaly figured out how to use the Virtual Consoles (C-F1 - C-F6) and was able to see error messages. I selected the stardard 101-key keyboard... and I have a 104-Windows Enhanced Keyboard. (stderr complains about the keyboard not being quite right, but it can survive) Also, I have a Microsoft Intellimouse (well, my computer is from Gateway, with a mouse labeled 'Microsoft for Gateway 2000', and it has the middle button/wheel) and startx says it can get the status of the mouse (or something like that). Oh... I don't have a Window manager up and running as of yet... I just type startx, how do I have a virtual desktop? Thanx for the help ---starfox Chris Stevenson
