I am trying to instal OS 8.6. The disk I have is 8.5 with the 6 update on a second disk. I got it, after a battle, on to an external H/drive, messages it can't update the drivers ,ok then a halt or two on "cannot read the instalation tome" but finally it succeeded. On trying to install from the cd onto the an internal IBM drive, which came with the 7600, original? Idon't know, it just won't go past "the instal can't proceed cannot read the instalation tome. The sad thing is that I bought the machine with 8.6 on it and had it just right after about a years service with little trouble. It was a little slow on startup so thought I'll reinstal from the cd bought on ebay. Now I have a right mess lost stuff from everywhere but it still boots from the old system all I have to do is try to recover the lost stuff. At the time I bought thr 8.6 cd I also bought a 200mhz 604e processor and some more memory, would it install if I went back to 604 processor? any advice would be appreciated. fluff wish I'd left the whle deal alone!!!!
