Thanks for the fast reply!

Now if I can just get install to use IRQ 9.  :-(

I think it picked 5 on the install that's currently running (at a snails
pace).  I'm of a mind to leave it go...at least it is making progress,
then when I setup pccard.conf make certain I put 9 first in the list of
available IRQs.

Meanwhile, if anybody has a clue on how to coerce install into using IRQ
9, I might be willing to kill the install and start over (just bin took
about an hour to copy :-().

Thanks again,
Bob
