Things start going wrong shortly after the 'rebuilding all devices' phase, it can't fetch the apache code and any other add ons. Although I select X-Developer as the type of installation, it never gets installed. I have sucessfully installed 2.0.5 on this machine and done a network 'minimum' upgrade prior to having the CDROM. I thought I would do a 'proper' install but I end up with less not more. My CDROM (Goldstar 4x IDE) is not recognised by the ATAPI floppy, I have to do a kernel reconfigure and delete the two drives defined under the second interface for things to work. So even if I could install from a local CDROM I may have the same problem as I now do FTPing from a machine a couple of feet away with a CDROM. Any ideas?
