Hello,

Bringing up a subject from April,

There was a discussion about an i386 install failing immediately after
loading the "boot disk". The first email in the sequence is bellow:

I've encountered a similar problem with 1.6 install onto a HP Vectra VE.
Yes, the "boot disk" does get the memory right.
Yes, I've tried a number of different disk sets.

There's a couple of things I find interesting.
1. It happens whether I use the installation cd or boot disks that have
been made.
2. I've made some boot disks from this cd before and had no problems
installing onto another computer.

I'm wondering if there are any suggestions?
