Bowman) Subject: Ethernet Help Information Scrolls Package: base Version: 93R5 During the configuration of the base system (called from /sbin/dsetup-modules script?), some of the text to assist users in setting up their configuration scrolls off the screen. This happens at the Ethernet card module loading screen. When configuration the base system, if you have an ethernet card, the top of the help message scrolls off the screen during installation. The workaround (if new users know it) is to use shift-pageup to read the information. I suggest you either pipe this output to more. Another solution would be to create two screens that contain the information I am using Debian 0.93R5 alpha, kernel version 1.2.1 and libc 4.6.27. I have installed ONLY the base system for testing purposes. Cheers, -- -- Grant R.
