Tried installing 4.2 on my PowerBook G3 Firewire (Pismo) 10.2.6, 320Mb and hit the indexing, out of memory loop too. Installed 4.2 in OS9 and tried to start it in Classic, with the same, out of memory message. Guess I'll have to stay with 4.1.3 for the time being, fortunately I tried all this on the PowerBook prior to trying it on my desktop machine. Graham B
