The doc's say to read the install from CDROM information but I am unable to find this doc. I have the info magic CD Vol 2. The system will install from the floppy drive but not from the CD. I could copy all of the files from the CDROM to the "/tmp" directory but why waste the space even for a short time. I have plenty of disk space and ram, 400 Meg/32 Meg and have a 1542B. Please e-mail me with your thought's. Sincerely Tom.......
