hi

i am trying to install FC2 on a new server and it keeps hanging time and 
again on disk #2 when it is installing an app called Xaw3d:

"Xaw3d is a replacement of the Athena Widget Set (Xaw) providing a three 
dimensional appearance by using for several widgets top and bottom shadows".

i will be running this server without X and have deselected anything to 
do with X, graphical system admin tools and so on.

i've tried tried about 8 times now.

does anybody know what option(s) i need to deselect to prevent Xaw3d 
from trying to install?

on another machine, i have located this:

[bill at mumble]# locate Xaw3d
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.so.6
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.so.6.1
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.so.7
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw3d.so.7.0

but, as i've said, i don't need any X libraries.

many thanks
