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.

Perhaps in your circle that is true. I doubt that is so the world over
as I've heard from plenty of folk that had MS Windows reinstalled at a
shop.

Well, when everyone you meet has a bad attitude, that is an interesting
observation. I presume that I have a bad attitude as well. :-D
