Do you all have somewhere on your web site a list of all of the error messages the the installer can give you and explanation of what they mean and what possible causes for the are? I just got a "MAKEDEV returned non-zero status" message at the very end of my FTP installation. But the onlything that tells me is that there was an error. It doesn't tell me what the error was or what might have caused it. Thanks. --Dan D. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Daniel G.
