Help! I am trying the dos boot disk on a gateway machine (no network booting or CD drive) I have managed to get the first stage of installation to work, I needed to alter some of the defaults in config.sys, and it appears that all the files are copied accross the network.
After the machine reboots & starts the local portion of the install I have numerous disk copy failures, a list to long to transcribe here, I have tried using my old v1.1 unattended install point & the machine installs so I think the hardware is sound. I have tried with and without replacing the MBR I have tried an unconditional format in case there was any dross from previous installs I have tried formatting with debugging turned on but there are no reported errors My altered section of config.sys looks like this - I needed to change it because the default settings crashed Any clues about where to look would be good at this stage Thanks Kevin Lawry ________________________________________________ ;; Pick exactly one of these XMS providers DEVICE=himem64.exe ;DEVICE=A:\fdxxms.sys bios ps ;DEVICE=himem.sys /testmem:off ;; UMB provider DEVICE=umbpci.sys ;DEVICE=emm386.exe NOEMS ________________________________________________ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!
