Hi John,I won't add much information, I was trying to install 6.0 beta2 too by installing from another computer (and it is not a dell inspiron, so it is not machine specific. I did a lot of tests while getting a bootlable hard disk to put in an OmniBook 800 which has no CD. I tried using the HD in an USB case or even putting it inside a "donor" laptop.
