I will try to install the stuff I have at work on the home CPU, I just brought my SCSI drive and cloned everything. I will boot from a floppy first, then LILO or grib the drive if it boots okay. I just wanted to check if I was going to have any other problems. Thanks. Cheers, Dick Johnson Penguin : Linux version 2.4.20 on an i686 machine (797.90 BogoMips).
