Another method is to simply do an stty echo (blindly) so you can see what you are typing. Then if you do an ls -F in /usr/etc/install you will see an executable program called "installation". So with a simple # installation your installation will continue just fine. Used this over half a dozen times with no problem. Murf John A.
