Hello,

I tried using the sipb installer around 9 pm on 01/02/2001 but
failed when trying to mount the machine sipb-nfs.mit.edu.  I received
the following error from the installer:

"I could not mount that directory from the server".

The directory in question was /u3/is-linux/redhat-6.2.

What should I do to install linux-athena?  I don't want to use the is
installer because it warns me that it will destroy the contents of my
hard drive.  Since I have windows already installed I'd rather not
wipe it out.

Thanks,
