Why not using apt-get?? Like ``apt-get install whatever''. (But first do ``apt-cdrom add'' for the whole set of Potato CDs, that will read the package info. You have to do this only once... The source for this is at ``/etc/apt/sources.list'' file) For example: # apt-cdrom add (loop for the whole CD set) # apt-get install joe
Or if you want to upgrade the whole distribution do: # apt-get dist-upgrade Bye, Lori. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Original Message <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< On 10/6/00, 2:56:54 PM, Matt Grant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote regarding Newbie Question: > I installed 2.1 then used dselect to install > apps from 2.2 Potato disk 1 and 2.
