All versions tried with 7.1 release and earlier work fine, I tried 7.1, 7.2 and 6.4. I rebuilt 8 RC2 CD with "loader" from 7.1 release and the 8 RC2 comes up O.K. now. I have two questions: 1) is anybody familiar with this problem 2) is it ok to install 8 RC2 using the 7.1 "loader" BTX loader 1.00 BTX version is 1.02 Consoles: internal video/keyboard panic: free: guard1 fail @ 0xbb797074 from (diretory path to) common/console.c:94 --> Press a key (etc)
