uhm, i'm almost sure i've never found those 2 files you mention ..
but i'll check it.

this is my problem .. how do i do this? the so52-..-xx.bin file doesn't
accept switch .. and after it's done, the setup script will not allow me
to use the net switch. how do you do this? using the bin file or the
script?
i have the impression we don't have the same staroffice archive .. where
did you get yours?
