Thanks. Would that have caused the failure I had? Another, general question. Are the kinds of problems I am experiencing with installing Debian/Linux common, or am I just lucky?! (Dare I mention it?) I installed netBSD a couple of weeks ago and got it right on the 2nd try. Of course, I didn't install anything but the base setup; no X or anything else of significance. I decided to install Debian/Linux instead because of the wider base and larger community. Besides, the Penguin is cuter <grin>. Are there any other Linux/Unix options for a 68K Mac besides Debian and netBSD? If so, how do they stack up against eachother? David Kachel
