I worked all day with five different distros (RH 10, CENTOS, Ubuntu, FC4 and Slackware 10.1) before finally getting one that worked (Slackware), and was just a wee bit frustrated at the incompatibilities. But it is a new day, the sun is shining, and optimism reigns once more. I'm gonna check the Ubuntu thing again, because I think there may have been a problem with the ISO download on that one.
