I believe I may be able to help you with this one. Use the command "dpkg -l to get a list of what was installed. Make a file containing the list with "dpkg -l > [filename.here]" Send that also. We should be able to figure what is happening with those things. I believe that you may only need the second cd to finnish your install. You don't actually NEED it. It is only neccessary if you WANT a package that is on it. ;-)
