They had the same problem I did. I think, IMHO, that a part should be added to the FAQs, under the part about troubles with installation. Here's the deal: When installing 1.1R, the system either hangs or displays a strange message (and then hangs) after booting, right after the message: changing filesystem to fd0a (or something like that) This is probably a bad kcopy floppy disk. Make another, and reinstall. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Craig Dodge 98022249@wsuvm1.csc.wsu.edu
