The Ghostscript install is very different from the SKUNKWARE2000 disk versus the downloaded version from the Caldera site. I need to convert to a vol.000.000 I think?

Or is there a easier way to just distrubite one package from the SKUNKWARE disk?

Thanks for any input.

VOL.000.000 means an image file...just [mv yourfilename VOL.000.000] and remember what directory it's in. When you install new software from [custom/software manager] you will load as image file.

Before loading software, make a copy of /etc/inittab and plan to re-copy over after load of software and relink of kernel. A good habit to form.
