Replying to a message of Kris Steenhaut to All:

That's probably it.  I ran into a similar problem trying to install Warp 4 GA
as a backup boot partition on a machine that uses LVM to manage the large IDE
drives.  That won't work and I didn't try to force it.  Instead I used Warp 4.51,
which I also have, for that backup boot partition (the machine's main boot partition
is Warp 4.52).
