no, sorry, I'm meant base40.tgz, etc40tgz, etc. My problem though is with step#6. I'm probably not creating the cd properly ( my cd contains files: base40, bsd, bsd.mp, bsd.rp, comp40, etc40, game40, man40, misc40, xbase40, xetc40, xfont40, xserve40, xshare40 in random order with no tree structure..). Should I create them with a tree 4.0/i386/base40, bsd, etc.? and if so, how do I do that? thanks
