I am running ZipSlack Slackware linux on my laptop. ZipSlack is on its own ext2 partiton. It has lilo and self boots. I am simply using it becasue of space requirements. Anyway, I installed tinyx, extracted and placed the files in all the right directories. Now when I run startx it tells me xinit doesn't exist. I checked xinit is right there, I typed "File xinit" and it registered as an executable program but if I type startx or ./xinit from the directory it says it doesn't exist. Anyone know why? Am I missing something obvious here?

BTW, the permissions are set as far as I can tell, I did a chmod 0755 and I was running as root.
