I also have this problem with Word Perfect and the latest MAcinTax. It seems to be a problem with the INSTALLER. I survive by installing on a real MAC, then use an archiever compresser to put it back on floppies that don't need to be INSTALLED. Another input. A friend (R. Dutt on the net) suggested that the following also works: 1. copy each disk to be installed to a separate directory. 2. tell INstall that the disk it wants is in that directory rather than a real floppy. Hopefully others can comment on this INstaller problem and solutionig. Howard Johnson ATT BELL LABS att!mtatm!hcj hcj@mtatm.att.com
