Hello all!
I have read everywhere that all the ZIP disks are formated /dev/sda4
but I got a bunch of ZIPs that are /dev/sda1, that is no problem at
all, but only curious about that. I also saw that JAZIP does not read
them, but I guess is only that I have not set up the conf. file
correctly.

It looks like I'll just need to burn Corel on a CD, although I wish
there would be some way for me to open ISOs in case I might
need to do that in the future.

Stormix just came out with beta4 this week, also debian based. Has

I burned stormix and corel cds to do an install for a friend this

I think you can take an iso file and use a loopback
file system to create a filesystem image of the .iso
without actually burning it. (under linux). There is
something like that that enables you to test a cd
image before burning it. See the cdrecord man pages I
guess.

Try running "locate lilo.conf" and that should find it. Actually, it should be

I've heard several people ask if this is possible. It is, but it's not
exactly clean. The first problem I ran into is that /etc/syslogd.conf is in

force-overwrites to get past that, since corel didn't make the packages
