Hello Managers,
        This is a follow up post after trying the responses
        to my first post. Evidently I missed something because
        the following steps resulted in the software subset still
        being labeled incomplete:
        
        setld -d SUBSET_NAME
        setld -l /mnt/ALPHA/BASE SUBSET_NAME
        
        The installation process went well with no errors for
        each of the files I tried. One curiosity was that some
        of the files which were marked incomplete gave the
        following message when I tried setld -d on them:
        
        # setld -d OSFSERTC410
        setld: OSFSERTC410: not currently installed, cannot delete
        
        I did reboot the machine after I made the installation, and
        that did not help any.
        
        I will now try removing the .lk file before hand and then doing
        the re-install.
        
        Are there any other suggestions?
        
        My first post is below my name, and it looks like I cursed myself
        by using the first sentence.
        
        Thanks for your help in advance.

Software Installation Part I

Hello Fellow Managers -
        
        This should be an easy question to answer. I have been having
        problems with a graphical program, and it seems to be related
        to the Xserver. I finally looked at the installed software
        using setld -i, and noticed that some files were marked as
        "installed", some were not marked(not installed), and some
        were marked as "incomplete". I am wondering about the
        ones marked "incomplete" is this normal? Or, does it mean
        something is wrong. When I run setld -l to see which
         files have not been installed, the ones marked "incomplete"
         do not show up on the list.
         
         Any information on what "incomplete" means would be greatly
         appreciated. Especially since one of the incomplete files
         is the X servers package OSFER410 which is mandatory for
         systems with graphics capabilities(which is where my problem
         seems to be).
