Everything managed to install correctly except XFree86-3.1. With DOS's (rediculous) 8 char filename limit, the installation process only finds the "xfree86_" directory. I think I can just move the directory to my root directory and rename it (/XFree86-3.1). How do I re-invoke the installation screen? I tried /sbin/sysinstall, but I only get the fdisk/disklabel screen. When I proceed, it just goes back to the shell. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Jason Dell jdell@sun1.iusb.indiana.edu
