With 2.2.2 release upgrade, it was really depressing because it took almost 8 hours to do the ftp install, I wanted to get all the source so I could create a custom kernel. I get the error login_getclass: unknown class 'root' When I login as root I get the same message but it allows me to login with my passwd giving me another error Warning: imported path contains relative components. I was fed up with it so I did a fresh install wiping out all the previous partition and after another 8 hrs of downloading came up with the same error messages, I figure it was not the upgrade process. I also account this for the reason I can't get my ppp connection to work? would this cause that? It works fine during the login and install process. I tried rebuilding the kernel thinking that something was wrong with it and it failed sonthing to do with the not finding some files it needed.. I don't remember off hand what they were but I did download the full X Developers install and all the source. please help. Sincerely, Ron Wright "Those who lack a sense of humor are fair game."
