OK, got a system running. There were a few uncompress errors on install; I expect that I'll need to find those modules and apt-get after i get internet running.

also in making the boot floppy, I got two errors, but it still boots; errors were shell-init and getcwd...both ended with "could not get current (or some such) directory.

Then, in KDE config, I was looking at the kernel panel and got an error "kernel contains invalid configuration rules".

My question: is this enough trash to make it advisable to get another distro CD and re-install?

Anyone care to tell me if those errors are significant?

Finally, I have a username in the system that I've forgot (ALWAYS write them down immediately, dope!!!) I don't suppose it hurts to leave it in there, but there is likely a command that root can use to list and then remove a user. I have a few Linux command summaries, but none shows this command. I know adduser, but not listuser nor deluser

Thanks for all the tips on getting this thing going.
