What Randi means by having sysinstall rescan devices is go into the "Options" section. Inside the Options Editor on the right side column there is an entry for "Re-scan Devices". Please use that and then try a normal install. That seemed to work for me on the one machine I had this glitch with. --=20 Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | kensmith@cse.buffalo.edu there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodore Geisel | --=-4G5vpQ+DyGx/sD3nhwHy Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEABECAAYFAkpWccIACgkQ/G14VSmup/bOuwCfdj/DL21ZgIT+b04Lb1fOE3/M OTUAniqsiKUsD/+Rsn+atJ6hhgw6xHel =OrcC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-4G5vpQ+DyGx/sD3nhwHy--
