Re: TeTex-Problem

Though I have yet to upgrade to TeTeX myself, I encountered this
problem when I installed the old latex packages.

As root, go to /usr/lib/texmf/ini (or the TeTeX equivalent) and, if
there's a makefile there you can just type 'make' but otherwise type
'initex latex.initex'.  This will create a latex.fmt which is the
default format file it's looking for.
