[lug] KRUD disk upgrade

[Atkinson, Chip]

You should be able to use text mode just fine.  At the lilo prompt, type in
"text" sans quotes of course.  That drops you into text mode.

Sean, 

i received new disks and this is still happening. i don't understand text
mode; i do not have that option. my choices listed on the install screen
are: 

Local CDROM; NFS Image; Hard Drive; 

FTP. this is happening right at the beginning of the install process (just
after 'do you have a color monitor' , i hit ok and have the choices i listed
above.
