Help!! Can't get started

[Ashley Benton]

Usually the installation is pretty quick, less than 1 hour. I think you have
to stop the CD to do the update at the time of the installation.I am sorry I
don't know how. If you wait I am sure than a more experienced user will
answer and be more helpful or you can check the archive of the mailing list.
Good luck
