Hi.
When the system ask for WinNT files onto drive A: it means that you have to:
- repoint the dialog box into the folder where packet.sys is located
- confirm that choice
- install the pacekt driver
I presume that the packet driver has not been installed, so that there are
no adapters in the Ethereal list.

I just want to remind you that:
- source code is on the web (so, please fix it)
- everything comes for free
so...
