Hi,

After succesfully installing 4.6-RELEASE on one system, I am
experiencing trouble with another system.  Debian was previously
installed on this system.  40gb IDE HD.  After partioning and
labelling slices, choosing what to install, I keep facing the
error message "write failure on transfer".  I'm using the 'auto'
options, however I have tried to allocate things manually, but
still no luck.

I reverted back to a FreeBSD 4.2 CD, and this seemed to go
through the installation procedure OK on the same har disk.

Useful suggestions sought !
