I just got ARexx 1.06, and ran into a problem with the Install program. When I first ran it, I immediately got a requester that said "please insert volume ARexx1.0 in any drive." So I scratched my head for a while, renamed the disk ARexx1.0, and tried again. This time the install process got a little farther along when I got a requester, "Please insert volume ARexx1.06 in any drive." So I scratched my head a little more, did "assign ARexx1.06: df1:" and tried again. This time the install program ran without any requesters. So what's the story? Am I short a disk, or what?

Bob, Sorry about the confusion with the install program for ARexx, but here's a couple of workarounds. Open a CLI window and type 1> assign ARexx1.0: ARexx1.06: and then run the rxinstall program. Alternatively, you can duplicate the ARexx disk and then rename the copy to ARexx1.0, and then insert each volume as the install program requests them. Bill
