Hi Vlad,
As I've said before, that's the difference between a newbie
and an . . . upgrader? I have no idea about such commands.
Order *does* matter, BTW, at least if one is using glint. Try
initscripts followed by pam, dialog, and the tetex collection.
Then pop in netcfg. Glint will barf on it, I suspect, although
YMMV. <g> For a newbie trying to get a system up, that is
not a happy experience.
Lance
