Hi,

Sorry, that wasn't clear.

On the powerbook 500 I'm running on here I get the following
when I run installer 1.1h

After the root scsi id dialog it finds rsd0a etc and then I get

/: bad dir ino 2 at offset 0:  mangled entry

Then I have the option of exiting.

A forced fsck from single user mode seems content though.

I build this system with the 1.6 sysinstall kernel.

I get a different error message on the system at home.  I'll check
tonight.

Thanks!

cheers
