Here is a report on the LibraNet 2.0 install: Thanks to Doug Riddle's help I got it installed. I would not put this one out for an "Intro to Linux". Since my computer would not boot from the CD, I had to do some things that only an old DOS person would know. The Mandrake install does a better job here. After I got it running, everything was OK. My question - Since LibraNet 2.0 did not like to dual boot with Mandrake, what would it dual boot with, Red Hat? Larry
