It seems that Bora Akyol said: > Well > Just for information the Linux Plug and Play version and Red Hat Release > both have Tk/Tcl based X installations. (I think the red hat can be > python based). REDHAT (and Caldera) are using a Perl5 script for most of the work. I installed two of them a few days ago and it was a real pain... You don't have any error output, error recovery is very poor, the curses based install lacks most of the finer settings of the X one. Slackware is far better. I really wished the guy has accepted to install FreeBSD instead... :-) -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- The daemon is FREE! -=- roberto@keltia.frmug.fr.net FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 2.2-CURRENT #12: Sun Dec 31 16:05:48 MET 1995
