It's working now. These are the libraries I ended up needing: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1170812 Feb 15 00:52 libc.so.6 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 248144 Feb 15 00:47 libncurses.so.5 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 12372 Feb 15 00:47 libnss_dns.so.2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 34144 Feb 15 00:47 libnss_files.so.2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 146320 Feb 15 00:47 libreadline.so.4 plus /etc services, /etc/nsswitch.conf, and the ftp client program. libc.so.6 had to be copied since the version in the boot floppies couldn't resolve getlogin. So, that leaves me ready to ftp in a copy of the base system .tgz file. Has anyone built such a thing for woody? I couldn't find one. Alternately, (or in addition) if anyone has built a version of dbootstrap with debug symbols I'll try it out. -- Mark -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
