Comments/Problems:
This report covers two seperate installs on the same machine. first install
went great, except I selected the wrong monitor parameters and graphical
portions *Didn't* work. The only solution I could come up with was to
reinstall the operating system. on the second time through, I tried to just
manually edit the partion list and then leave it alone as the install
already worked. However, I received an error that said that a boot system
couldn't be found and I was just looped between the manual entry list and
this error.
I am now doing the install again, but I selected to wipe this drive first,
and all apears to be going well.
I selected simple installation method for the monitor, and although it is
now visable, It still doesn't work right
