Hi Craig,

I don't know what hardware you were installing on, and have never done a 
"migration", only fresh installations, all completely successful, on 
both IDE and SCSI, so I'd suggest that you post your problems on the 
"ecomstation.support.install" newsgroup at 
"nntp://news.ecomstation.com[or .nl]" after subscribing.

The staff at SSI/Mensys [who are the *worldwide* distributors now] do 
read those newsgroups.
