<keeping list updated> I'm thinking that the problem may not be directly related to OSCAR. I assume the other wizard steps finished properly? If the image build failed, there may have been a small window that popped up saying what happened. Can you paste the contents of the oscarinstall.log from one of the sessions in which the image build failed?
Just to verify, are you using OSCAR 3.0 or 2.2.1? Thanks, Jason On Thu, 2004-01-22 at 09:32, Danny Flood wrote: > I've tried installing OSCAR a few times but have not been successful.
