That's where I am at right now. I am going to re-architect the entire thing. I am going build a new installer and use some fancy footwork to get the package versions I need in place. I'll need to do some force-downgrading, but that's OK :-) 

I am giving up on trying to find the ISO's. I have already wasted a day and a half going through backup tapes, etc. trying to find out when this whole thing went south, and trying to dig up my original ISO's. I need to just take the whole project back and start from scratch..

Thanks,
