Subject: Re: changing/fixing the tarballs in the butch
John,
I wiped out and redid the install 10+ times last weekend, and finally was
just trying to get past this stage, so I didn't write down/keep every
problem log. I'll go back after I'm fully up and try to get this isolated,
or figure out what I was doing wrong/problems with my box/internet whatever.
thanks again for helping me get past this stage,
Will
