Yes, it writes "localhost being added to success control list".

I don't [want to] know. 
As I remember, when I installed Mandrake9, X-windows didn't operate
properly until I downloaded something about ..*4*...
Now with linux FC1 automatically installed-configured I don't know 
which X-server was auto-selected.
The linux detection reports video: ATI Mach64 3D Rage IIC.

When I copy the *020127* files over to another box [via minicom]
which runs the previous version of LNO [ie. no problem with video],
I get a trap at an even earlier stage of installation.
Even when I noticed that this second box has only 32MB ram, so I
edited *.cnf for a 20MB heap-size.

Why can't someone just post me a good-sample oberon.log ?
