Thanks for the response. We just got this working...Apparently it was being caused by the special characters I had in the tmp password. I removed those and it works fine.

Justin, I just tried this, and it works for me. I would suggest looking at your PuTTY session parameters, and make sure it's trying SSHv2 first (if not only SSHv2). One further suggestion, though, is that you specify the installation source. The installer needs to pull down the stage2 file, which has most of the commands you're going to want in it. For example, yast. ;) Mark Post ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
