What do I type at the first prompt to do this? I run an i r l p ham radio Linux box and have done four of these, but always needed sighted help to do the initial install. Once I get up and running I can use my windows machine witha terminal program and winscp to do what I need. Hoping there is a way to do this without sighted help. 73s Butch Bussen wa0vjr
