My guess is that the server has stuff that Sarge (current stable) doesn't work with. Etch may (I would guess will). However, Etch isn't stable so a server maker isn't going to support that. Why not make an Etch netinst.iso and take it to the server and try it? Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
