Re: urgent base2_1 installation problem
Check you have sufficient space, happened to me when I got the number of the
root and boot partitions the wrong way around. If this is the case maybe you
should do as I didn't (naughty me!) and submit a bug report asking for a
useful error message.
You need a fair amount of space in the / partition for it to copy the
base.tgz file then expand it.

Subject: urgent base2_1 installation problem
Hi all,
I am having trouble on installing the base system -- base2_1.tgz
Everytime after I installed the base system, it will just bring me back to
the installation menu that ask me to install the base system again....
I have basically tried every method........ install from 7 floppies, from
cd-rom, from a dos partition HD.... but still, it will just bring me back to
the original screen....
Can anyone show me the solution? My files are download from the web, and I
even got a CD-rom from a distributor, still....... sigh.....
Please kindly help me out if anyone could...
Kevin
