So last night I tried to re-size the partitions (RD54)... copied it to
part. a, b, and e .... I obtain
the same behaviour, stops after "The Regents....." same for all
partitions,
so I changed to a RD32, obtained the same behaviour. I didn't obtain this
'command....' during the installation.
Somewhere I must be doing something wrong, or??. My VS2000 is also a
KA410-B V2.2. could this be a problem??? (anybody out there manage to
boot this version)...... I guess I have to wait for the installation
instructions for VS2000???? :-(
Maybe using mop could solve my problems?,
