I don;t have the details - but it is possible I may have been connected
via wireless rather than wired - so I may try this again and record some
diagnostics.... so that may have been my error rather than the basic method
being wrong.
Can you point me at a url where the various methods are detailed for doing
rawhide installs?
Thanks
