First, kill the HTML email, and fix your word wrap so its something 
under 80char/line.

It sounds like you might have a bad install CD, considering the number 
of probems you're experiencing out of the box.  Also, verify that your 
floppy drive works, and that you have a good floppy.

Finally, be aware that COL2.4 is *OLD*, really old.  THe latest from 
Caldera is COL3.11.
