Actually that has nothing to do with DHCP. Say no to "Start this connection at boot?" in the installer. It's asking if you want to dialout at boot up and well this feature is bugged and hangs. As an aside and it's not just you. Please don't posts long install reports. It's much easier to read and get through your email if you break out the issues in separate emails. "mandrake 8.2 b2 report (clean install)" really doesn't help me in deciding if I need to read your 4.5k email. I'll admit I used to do the whole one long email thing too until I realized how difficult it was to read these emails versus a single issue per email. At any rate please don't take this as meaning you shouldn't post your results... -- Ben Reser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://ben.reser.org What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy? - Ghandi
