After initializing the swap partition and mounting an existing ext2 partition as root I choose for the next step, intall kernel+modules. It immediately prompts me which one (of the two) CD-ROM drives I'd like to use. I get the same screen when installing a base system. Then I retried, but with the hdc=none, hdd=none flags to make the installer believe there are no CD drives. Worked just a bit, now it allowed me to install from an existing partition, fd0 or fd1 (IIRC). But still no FTP/HTTP. > I don't see any open bug reports on boot-floppies about this.

Just tell me what to do. Greetings, Wilmer van der Gaast. -- *=-+-______________________ |lintux-@t-lintux-d0t-cx: _ Ugh!
