Hey, guys.

Upon installing Yellow Dog Linux 2.0 on my Pismo 400 mhz, I get an error
about halfway through the package installation. I had chosen the
Home/Office install, since it was recommended. I get an Error checking the
dependencies for mozilla... Then I hit OK and it tells me it wants to remove
mozilla, but it can't because the user had selected it for install. Hitting
OK again brings me back to the install menu (the one with install media,
configure mouse, keyboard, time, etc...).. Then I do the rest of the steps
and reboot. It's only a half install, so nothing works.

The thing that pisses me off is that I can't even choose what I want to
install over and above the preset Home/Office or Base, etc...

I installed the Base system, and it works fine. But that's all it does. I
can't use lynx, wget, or any other methods to access the net. I tried yup,
but it needs a mirror list... And I can't get one... It's also missing it's
yup.conf.

Please help, thank you. If you need clarification I'll clarify more. ;P
