I'll have time this weekend to give it a quick look, I would like to  
see what has been changed in SuSE 10 anyway, so I'll do a quick  
install in VMWare.
Exactly what command did you type and exactly what output did you get?
I don't like anything always producing an error, something must be  
wrong so I want to fix it. It shouldn't ever do that, it causes  
problems for novice users.
