You've stumbled onto the reason that we recommend the Custom Everything installation, or the Server Class installation instead. You have two choices: 1.) Reinstall. You probably have little to lose at this point reinstalling. This may be the better choice: 2.) Simply install lynx using rpm and any other items you find missing as you use linux. To install lynx, find it on the CD ROMs and do: rpm -iv lynx and press tab followed by eneter. Next, you might want to copy the lynx.cfg file from the Goodies CD ROM to your /etc directory. It will give you some important blind friendly settings for lynx--like cursor tracking--that make lynx far more user friendly for blind users. This file is in the misc directory on Goodies.
