Oops, I didn't notice the path you stated in your original message. It would seem that somewhere, an installation script or some such is munged. There should be no source/Red directory - it should be /mnt/source/RedHat and subdirectories. Ask your friend if he used the GUI installer or the menu-based installer - my bet is that whichever installer you're using, he used the other if he got it to work. You might want to download a fresh ISO from redhat.com (or, preferably, one of the mirrors - I usually use mirrors.kernel.org or ftp-linux.cc.gatech.edu) and make a "known-good" disc set. If you're on dialup, this is probably going to be neither quick nor fun :( Maybe your friend who made your CD has a big pipe and won't mind grabbing a fresh ISO? For that matter, I'd be happy to burn you a set for the cost of media and shipping (That is still allowed, right?) - it would give me a chance to test out this nifty new whiz-bang CD-RW I just got, in any case :) Jeff Lanthripp _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
