When installing SO you have to enable it's networking 
capability to allow all users acces. To do so, become root, go 
to the directory where you have all the binaries ( its located 
a few directories below the main one), find the file named 
*setup*. - And - at this point, I would open a console, su 
into root, verify once again that the *setup* file is there ( 
easy : type ls setup) and then issue the command :
setup -net  (earlier on, in my OS/2-days it was setup /net, so 
if one doesn't work, try the other).

This should open the installation process, enjoy.

Then - if everything goes OK, back out of root (close all 
windows) and as a normal user, go back to the very same 
directory once again. Now, issue the command : setup. That way 
you'll only install about 1.5 MB in every users /home/user 
directory. Very cool.
