Not even on an empty hard drive on commodity x86 hardware? I find this admission so absurd that I can't get my head around it. Although, your definition of "successful" may be different than mine. I define "successful" as the OS booting to a login prompt after installation, either GUI or character. > what? That's absurd.

I doubt that is so the world over as I've heard from plenty of folk that had MS Windows reinstalled at a shop. > Look, I asked for help. Then things got out of hand.

I presume that I have a bad attitude as well. :-D - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
