Re: Problem installing .9 iso image on C240
Sorry for not putting more useful information in the
previous message.
Here is what I have seen, except for the actual small
crash message.
I have tried all the install options, narrow, wide and
sti. I did happen to get past the crash part of the
way when I kept compatibility with the older kernel.
I also got the sti install to get farther than any of
the others. Which I thought was odd, since I only have
a serial port connection to the box.
When running the sti option, I get a reasonable error
about exim.. package being corrupt. Then the I can
not get any further in the install. I think this is
probably where the others just crash. I have
downloaded a different image this time, just to be
safe.
I downloaded the 32 bit version, I am going to try the
64bit version now.
Thanks for your help.
