       Hi Ray,

          I used Kpackage and went through all the disks manually. Trying
    Rpmdrake, now, I see I wasted some time, but the as86 is still not there.

       Hi Hamish,

         According to the notes on the dev86 package, it includes the real mode
    assembler. But which file it is I am not sure. The 'asm' entry is not an
    executable. And 'as86' is not in there either !?

          73, Don...

    It's been a while since I used Mandrake, but there are two commands you
    may find very useful: "rpm" and "rpmdrake". You can use "man rpm" to
    find out more about rpm.

    RPMDrake specifically allows you to search your Mandrake disks for the
    RPM containing a specific file.

    Rpm itself has some useful tools, like, to find out what rpm provided a
    particular file, do "rpm -qa --whatprovides /path/to/file".

    Hope this helps,
    Ray
