Hello!
Bruce, thanks for the tip about script. For whatever reason, man
didnt work, but I got the script working anyway. Here are the relevant

Thanks for your quick response.

I would be very interested in your (or others') experiences, since I am

i have three question that you may be able to help me out.

Hi Bruce,
Im grateful for your help. It seems as though the problem
is there is no /cdrom directory or files! Do you know how I can
fix this? Perhaps load a disk image onto a floppy, or...?
Thanks!

I have debian running on a desktop system now, all working fine

Never mind! I Missed that the floppy itself also has to have a
valid
filesystem before the "mount" will work. I was thinking I just
need to
get the "device" configured first and then I can worry about
formatting!
Well, now to my CDROM problem.?

Just curious to see if anyone has been able to install the above. I
saw some success notes in the archive for earlier versions. I'm
guessing that there will be some library incompatibilities since the
software seems to have Red Hat 6.1 as its native platform.

I'll simply add, having watched several people bloody themselves
horribly trying to get O8i on an RH 6.1 system, that the installation is
broken for RH itself. There is apparently 3rd party documentation which
