Thank you Bill,

I know the part you are talking about. What must of happened is that for
some reason the install script exited itself. That's never happened to
me before... I'll need to check that out - it could be to do with your
system configuration. Then, it went to the first install script, which
has that message.


Citylink has kindly offered to host Jedo, so when that's up, I'll post
the link. I'm not sure if that will be NZ only, or world wide.

I'm also thinking about getting myself a web presense - domain name, web
site & a mailing list, so if I do, I'll keep you all posted. However, I
woun't be able to host ISO images, due to space & bandwidth limits. :-(
