The machine has a dual Intel Atom 6xx 1000 MHz and 4 nics. I have used OpenBSD on it for a long time without problems. I have switched a number of USB sticks and this one actually gets the installer working as evident by where it stops. The downloaded i386 checksum are perfectly fine when checked so what gives...??? I will try another version to make sure it is not the version I am having a problem with. Any ideas, suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance, George
