HI!

I have the following permissions set:

-rwxrwxrwx    1 root     root     97198566 Sep 21 18:51 so-5_2-ga-bin-linux-de.bin
-rwxrwxrwx    1 root     root     16329089 Sep 21 19:17 soa-5_2-ga-bin-linux-de.bin

The files are in /home.

When I execute the above command, I get the welcome and license screens and then a screen
asking whether I want a Standard, user-definied or minimal install. That I understand is
not the /net - install.

I know that it is supposed to work with ./setup -net (or /net), but I don't have ./setup
but only this .bin-file.

Did it work for you with the above file, or with the ./setup command?

TIA
