This crossed my mind---that I might have to have a CD in the drive. ...Another thing was that I was missing a line from /etc/rc; this is new to 2.2; the ldconfig line that searches out /usr/lib/compat. I was put into a root SH when the boot stalled. Maybe things will work when I reboot. But I will drop a CD into the drive. Thanks much. gary
