Hello, I'm installing slink on a friend's old '486, with a CD rom which is smbmounted from a drive on his win98 box. I can access the .deb files okay, and can do 'dpkg -i file.deb', but 'apt-get install <package>' is broken because the symlinks on the CD aren't followed. Is there any way to get apt-get to work on an smbmounted CD rom? I'm considering installing personal web server on the '98 box and serving up the CD as http or ftp if smbmount won't work. I'd like to avoid making any changes to the winbox because he uses it for work and I don't want to be responsible for fixing anything on it that might break. Any ideas? Tia,
