I did not install with the /net option. Why is that needed? >> As root, install :'so52-whatevername.bin /net' (when asked, >> install in something like /usr/local/office52, not /root (stupid >> default) as non priviledge users can't read there !) >> >> > >I like /opt for Star Office. I chose /usr/local. BTW, I installed Mandrake 7.2 with the default partitions and I'm wondering why so much disk space was given to the /var partition? Only 4% is used and it's 14.2GB! Also, I'm wondering why only 29GB is shown in kdf when this is a 40GB drive? Surely, the swap partition isn't 11GB! > >BTW, get the SO 6 beta -- much nicer! Hmm, but I don't like betas. I've had enough major disk crashes to last a lifetime! 99% of them happened on Windoze though. Anyway SO 5.2 isn't so bad. And I'm glad that it can read Word documents. ALso, I need to find out why SO didn't see JAVA during install since I followed the instructions on installing JAVA and JAVA seems to be working in Netscape 6.2. No rest for the weary. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.8 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com> iQA/AwUBPBK+R4woPKBUx8xQEQLUnQCgveUE5W4ez1lVRboS72tojee7PM0AoKOB XIL+vfwWU/tq+jYv0XJmM0c0 =Y2Fd -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
