Howdie RGB!

Thanks for your words of encouragement!  While you may be correct ... I have
a positive attitude that it will.  I know the CDROMs are good; I have faith
in RH (what a fool, huh?) and I have a ready source of good information and
help - this list - cheering me on!

Now, if the fsckin' thing doesn't complete ... I'll be the first to bow down
and concede to my fellow lodge member, the right reverent RGB (Can't quite
get that image of you wearing those hats out of my mind.  Shades of Jackie
Gleason at a lodge meeting! ;>)  he was correctomundo!

Hope all is going well with you and what distro are you using these days?
;>))

Best Regards,

Rob E.

The install is progressing, but ever so slowly (at the 90% window, but my
rough calc) ... next time I won't install the whole shebang ... just the
core stuff with KDE only to see if there is any dramatic improvement in
speed.  But since it is progressing, I'll wait it out.  It hasn't locked up
or terminated and I've got a few more hours before I turn in, so ... wish me
luck.
