If I use a floppy, I have to boot from that and then eject the floppy half way through so that my automatic reboot (at least it does that much now; it used to require a keyboard to hit return) doesn't simply keep trying to install over and over again, but I'd like to be able to just ssh client "lilo -R kick ; reboot" and have it set the boot target, reboot itself, and happily reload. As long as it can find a kickstart config, or even something reasonably like it, I'm happy. I can see the even cooler benefits of booting from the network but it's not at all worth it to me to look into booting from the NIC and pulling down the kernel (at least not this week ;-) % cd/floppy install (it must be Monday). *grin* % % Forrest Thanks again! :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) davidtg@xxxxxxxxxxx * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) davidtgwork@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.bigfoot.com/~davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
