I presume you mean no floppy or CD drives, but does have a hard drive. If there's no hd, then reconfiguring whatever's feeding will take care of it :). > Since the Cobalt box has lot of stuff that I don't need, I am trying to > do re-install with just the things I need.

I will be getting one or more this weekend. 3com has some that are supposed to be really good. There might be cheaper ones, but I don't what they are and don't know if they work. If it has USB, you could try a USB network card that allows for network booting. Then again, if you've been using package management on it, you should be able to clean it up by hand. Might be easier than reinstalling from scratch and it's an opportunity to learn more about Linux :). ciao, der.hans -- # der.hans@LuftHans.com home.pages.de/~lufthans/ www.DevelopOnline.com # Passwords are like underwear.
