Hmmm... not that I can recall. The console has always "just worked"
from within hercules itself, run from a terminal. Maybe this has
changed in recent versions of hercules, I'll keep looking. Thanks for

There definitely seems to be some bug in the Fedora installation : I'm
installing Red Hat Linux 7.2 using ftp as I write...
I've filed a report against "distribution" and "s390" since I
don't
know if this is an anaconda problem or something deeper.
