Hello, I have been trying to install 1.3 on an iMac 2011, which seems dumb on the face of it, but I noticed that it has Intel-based sound that looks to be SBEM compatible, so I figured that it would actually be a good use of aging hardware. There were 2 problems doing this: I saw that the cooling fans were running high & the unit was indeed hot - regardless of whether I was trying to install or just running FD off disc. Also, when I installed, it seemed slow but I read that sometimes it can take a while so I left it run all night. It ran into errors like these:
Run chkdsk: Bad FAT index: #x######## Run chkdsk: Bad FAT value: #x######## Run chkdsk: Bad FAT index: #x######## Run chkdsk: Bad FAT value: #x######## Fatal error: error code #101, unspecified error with "gzip.exe" I attempted formatting the drive first (running FD as a Live CD) with a full format, but that made no difference. My questions are: is the iMac architecture that lame in this context, or is this normal behavior for installing FD to an SSD? I had not tried installing to a platter drive yet. Thanks for your thoughts, Dan
