Now that I've made it through installing 2.0.5 from floppies, I've got 
another problem. I cant save the file "sysconfig". I made some changes, 
and tried to write the file, and it said something to the effect of 
permission denied. I also tried "w!" and that did not do it either.

BTW, yes I am a Unix and FreeBSD newbie.
Thanks

Any resemblence between my opinion and Qualcomm's
is purely coincidental                        :o)
