Hi, people!
I have a problem. I have
tried to install Xwindows on my 486100, but it 'cannot find the packages'. I've
used dpkg to... de-package the files but none of the resulting files run at all.
I've tried doing it from my Win98 partition, but same result. I've used dselect,
but again all I get is useless files. I have reinstalled, reformatted, and
reinstalled, but no go. The machine in question has no internet access, and I
don't have any idea on how to set up my internet account with Linux. I tried
mounting my hard disk (vfat) but again, no go. I've tard and retard my files in
a futile attempt to copy them to disk... I even created my own mini packages
file. None of this works, and I have (gasp) almost given up hope. Other then
lending out my hard disk to a friend who won't loan out the CD, what else can I
do?
