I run through your install utility and follow the instructions explicitly. When I hit (P) to proceed, I get the following error: /stand/newfs fails to reformat the hard drive with an error code of 9216. I am installing on a Packard Bell Legend 23CD 66MHz 486dx with a 540 Mb IDE hard drive and 12 Mb of RAM. Please recommend a fix for this problem. Thanks, T Scott Urban urban@snickers.mhpcc.edu
