You have conflicts, simple, at the boot: prompt, type -c at the next prompt, type visual, configure the kernel to remove conflicts, boot and install. REAL simple, but I guess someone with your attitude requires flaming of something you don't take time to research. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jim Sloan jsloan@livenet.net Vice President LiveNet, Inc. 413 Davis St. Suite 106 Full Service Internet Provider Virginia Beach VA 23462 Dialup and dedicated connections Ph: 804-499-9328 Virtual Web, Email, and FTP hosting http://www.livenet.net info@livenet.net webmaster@livenet.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------
