 Whoa...Devon...I was using miniconda not slinky....

Slinky went through beautifully (P166)...just I couldn't add in my
antiquated cdrom drivers with it(actually never tried).  I'm now trying on
an old 486 with a proprietary cd, I gotta use sbpcd on that one.  Ergo:
went over to miniconda, cause it asks for a driver disk...we get over that
hurdle...it loads the driver and sees the cd...then when it asks for the
'updates' that's where I get into trouble...

That was why I had mentioned that in a earlier post...about being nice if
I could load external modules...;-)
