Hi there,

 I have installed the SLS 1.03 release, with some problems.

 My machine is a 486DX50, 8Mo RAM, 214Mo HD(IDE), screan NEC 4FG
 mouse MS compatible 3 bottons, AZERTY keyboard, NCR 77C22E (2Mo) video card
 with a DOS and a LINUX partitions.

1- after runing fdisk and writing the partition table to the disk, I had this
 message:
   79076 unallocated sectors. Is it that bad ???

2- at the tex pkgs installation I had thsi message:
   installing texbin...tar:could not create file usr/TeX/lib/tex/inputs:Is
   a directory

3- at the end of installation, when the system write the de boot floppy
   I had this message:
   Setting up lilo on $ROOTDISK
    If any specify a DOS partition to (...blabla...):/dev/hda2 (my LINUX
    partition, I answered!!)
    First boot sector of /dev/hda2 doesn't have a lilo signature (what's wrong??)

4- an other message;
    open /etc/lilo/map no such file or directory

==============end of installation

after reboot, I tried to change the american keyboard into french keyboard
with setkbd but it asked for files I don't know where they are.
The README file is not very clear for me.
same problem with the doc of X11, I haven't found the doc for my video card,
to change the clock parameter and so.

Any help greatly apreciated, if any one around here is using a NCR 77C22E
video card and have a runing Xconfig file, send it to me via email.

I would prefer email answers if any, there's a lot fo trafic in this newsgroup

Thanx a lot
