HI Scott, >Thanks to everyone who has helped me with this. I'm getting closer.

Cool! Glad to hear it! >Keyboard type, I get the message: >Can't write to temporary user settings file /tmp/keybd_settings. just out of curiosity, are you trying to use the (older) net-install images - they were out three or four months ago? I had this same thing with those floppy images... You could try going over to a VT ( do alt-F2) and you'll get a shell - from their you might be able to find out what's going on, maybe it needs a chmod +w or some such. See if /tmp exists too. the drive that you are installing to is in /target (in case you were curious)... anyway, you can frequently looka around and set things straight from this shell - and then just return to the install menu (alt-F1) and see if you can go on ... keep at it, I know you'll get it now... cheers, erik
