I can't get it installed if it kills the installation process ;). Any help would be most appreciated. Also, just as a technical question -- the slice manager is showing a >1024 cylinder space on my drive -- can I safetly use that for either the root partition or the swap partition? Or should I use that for some less essential (and less boot-orriented) partition.. The best partition to use it for (for me) would be swap, if possible. Thanks for a great product (once I get it installed on this system ;). Robert Watson rwatson@sidwell.edu
