Given your description of the problem and your subsequent problems with reinstalling, I'm guessing that 'setup.exe' didn't finish doing its work. Look in '/etc/postinstall' and see if there are any scripts there that don't end in ".done". Also, check '/var/log/setup.log.full' for any messages that would indicate the problem. In the worst case, you can try running each of the scripts in '/etc/postinstall' manually. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc. (508) 893-9779 - RFK Office 216 Dalton Rd.
