Put both copies of beta 3 i in both cdreader and burner. The same result
all the time. It is not RSJ, this is happening after the first pages where
you select,change or confirm all the thing you have installed and select
dountry and keyboard. At this time foles are being copied to Drive Z: (ran
disk) I get the same result,process stops with the line "installed
ibmlvm.dmd" on ythe svreen. I can reboot using the thre fingere
salute;so the system is not frozen.

512 meg ramdimm. I would have to purchase smaller value ram.

Hi Vic,

I'm pretty sure that was a maximum of 512MB where the problem occurred - 
since then should be overcome by the later kernels. Try it with just 
512MB fitted - what is currently on the disk that you are trying to 
install it onto?

Is that the *only* disk in this particular system?
If it is can you mount it in another working machine as a slave and 
redirect the output from "LVM /QUERY:ALL ,"
to .

Note disk numbering starts with "1", e.g. "d:\LVM /QUERY:ALL ,3 > 
d:\desktop\can't-install to this" if it's disk #3, and paste the results 
back here.

or Is it a "virgin"?

Get back to us

Regards,
Mike
