OK, THAT didn't last long. Clearly I'm doing something fundamentally wrong. It gets through a significant portion of the CentOS install, then fails with an error saying it can't find image #2. Mind you, I never saw squat about allstar or app-rpt. Only CentOS. The file I earlier put on the USB thumbdrive was "acid_centos.iso".

Thanks; I'll shall take that under advisement HOWEVER in the 45 minutes between posting my problem and your response, I tried putting the ACID .iso image file on the thumb drive in addition to the expanded contents of that .iso image and it suddenly started working so I think I'll let that fly first and see how it goes.

BTW I just love how quick this list responds to users' issues!

Thanks again,

Hey Bob, Why don't you use Limey Linux. It does need IDE I think.

Hi,

Forgive me if I missed something in the online help covering my problem, but I find myself having to install from a USB thumb drive (using Unetbootin) since my external USB DVD-ROM drive hangs my computer (Mini-ITX w/ 1.6GHz Dual Core/2GB RAM/8GB Sandisk flashcard in a SATA adapter) The install boots off the thumbdrive, but immediately can't find a "kickstart" file, and when I select the obvious choice (ks.cfg) doesn't work. After that, my only choice is a interactive install, which gets hungup after I fail to tell it some driver it needs. It can see all the files from the ACID image. I'm equally certain I've missed one tiny, stupid element that's hosing the whole thing. Ideas?

Thanks,

Bob KK6RQ
