Here's some nice hard data on the other big error. If the install manages to get to the point where you select the type of system and the packages you want, a nice little error comes up. Error cannot unpack base system archive. If I head over to the virtual console with the error log, it indicates that there's a /tmp/tlinux/TurboLinux/base/skeleton.cgz that is apparently the source of the problem. When I booted up with a dos disk and took a look, the file is present, and isn't empty. Emily ************ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxchix.org
