Hi

To install programs off my RED HAT 5.2 CD I've gone into X window and
loaded the control panel and then gone to the program manager and the
end of the list. Then i click on a program and select
install............... HOWEVER it always tries to install onto / even
when it's full.

I want it to install onto by secondary HD mounted on /usr!!  Which has
100 MB free.

I know of another Xwindow program manager but I assumed it would run the
same way.

I thought of using the prompt to install the programs but I don't know
how to get it to install to /usr?

Another Question....  I'm getting a 250 MB ZIP drive and I was wondering
if anyones had problems setting it up to run on LINUX????
And if drivers are redily available??

Thanks heaps
cs
