I have no clue on the numbers files, i am a begginer like you. I just
lucked onto that wordperfect thing. Don't give up. When M$ goes belly up
in a few years you'll be ahead of everyone else.

 Thsnks, Luke
 I think for now, I am not going to try to do any installing, untill
 I can learn more about this beast.
 I may just give it up.
 BTw, I find a strange bin file on my C drive, numbers.bin ,
 is this the LILO or do you know?
 If I decide to delete this OS, I would need to del thAt too.
 Thanks,
 Will

  Pliler, I just installed WP from the cd-rom. It  is named
  WordPerfect_Tar.Tar I could not get it to work either untill I copied it
  to disk and renamed it WordPerfect.tar.gz. Then I could unzip it into a
  directory and run the RUNME file. It installed with out a hitch.

   Thanks Michael and all,
   Yes, in fact if you read all those numbers at boot, I found it.
   I tried installing WP , just now, under root of course, it just
   sat there and did nothing.
   Using KDE, I clicked the CDrom icon, (with the disk in the cd) and
   saw and read the readme file, but when I tried to do mandrake.run
   nothing.
   Ideas?

Dan,
How do you tell which version your Kernal is?
I have the 5.3 rel of L-M but that doesn't mean anything as far
as the Kernal,  right?

L-M 5.3 runs kernel 2.0.36, I believe...
