Hi, thanks...but a couple more questions:

So if this still works....then why would I need to worry about the anaconda 
assumptions? If it is still available then it sould work?

Where is the documentation for this please? I've been pouring over RH9 docs 
for two weeks and have not found it. The 9 docs are quite obscure. The LDP 
howtos were quite helpful in providing the information I needed to get this 
going correctly. But the 9 docs are not too helpful.

For security purposes of our network...and some of our contract requirements, 
I need to keep it to a CD/FLoppy. That's why this ks solution was so appealing 
to me to begin with.

Maybe...if you could point me in the exact dir for documentation that would 
tremendously help.
