Ok, thanks dave- I was hoping I wasn't going to
have to do that, but it's done. So, for all
you redhat lovers out there, I have a bootable
image of redhat-6.0 in ftp://136.201.44.219/redhat-6.0/iso/
Come and get it!!!

Steve

Ps. I have not had a chance to write this to cd yet,
so the bootable bit is not gaurentied (I really should learn
how to spel :-), but it should be ok. I've loop mounted and
everything looks fine. Hmm, some of you probably would like a
checksum or someat to check it against. If so, just tell me
how to do that, k?

=============================================
It was quiet... too quiet.
Then it was loud... too loud.
Quiet again... too quiet.
And once more, loud... way too loud.
"Damn snooze button," I mumbled to
myself as I got out of bed and
checked the time:  late... too late.
