<DIV><FONT face=Verdana color=#0000ff size=2>Hello everybody,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana color=#0000ff size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Verdana color=#0000ff size=2> As I'm tired of
Windows 98 continuous crashing and as I don't want to make Mr Gates any richer,
I've decided to install Linux Red Hat 7.3 as a dual boot on my pc, so I'm
very new to the whole thing</FONT><FONT face=Verdana color=#0000ff size=2>. As
no modem was detected, I've downloaded the driver for my hsf modem. I've saved
the downloaded file to a diskette, so that I can install it when I'm in
Linux. Now I'm stuck as I don't know how to install the drive from my diskette
to the pc!! I've tried by "mounting" the floppy disk, then tried my luck by
typing "rpm -i hsflinmodem-5.03.03L3mbsibeta
02101000k2.4.18_3-1rh.i686.rpm" without success, to which I'm not surprised
cause I' m not telling Linux to look in the diskette, am I?? So, how do I
translate in Linux-ese:</FONT></DIV>

above file, install it ?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Verdana color=#0000ff size=2>Many Thanks if anyone out there can
help</FONT></DIV>
