Hm, thanks, but using those sounds like an installation using advanced procedures I'm not experienced with. Are we talking about a place in the installation where it might ask if you have other images or such on another medium (such as another CD or DVD)? I assume that is detailed in the inst docs, but I've never done it before. Thanks, Jochen. -Tom -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
