Okay...I'm installing 2.2.6 right now and I'm at the "Package Selection"
menu.  Strange, I see no way to read the README.TXT file for any of these
packages.  No, I haven't yet completed the installation.  Yes, I'm
installing packages as part of the base install and there is no README to
RTFR on :)

Is there a hidden key stroke that I'm missing to do this with ? :)

Something like "ctrl-alt-del,F3,root,mount /cdrom,cd /cdrom/packages/All,
vi */README.TXT" perhaps ? :-)
