is currently running and seems stable.
Well, it certainly won't install into the 1GB drive.

Yes, 4 GB is minimal but should suuport what I need - this is in a school with a limited set of applications. The 4GB HD is formatted by OS 9, is empty - but the install won't even start as xpf shows the drives, shows the install CD, but will not allow me to select them. I don't think I have got far enough for any problems with the HD, etc to arise. I've configured the obvious - input from the keyboard, output to Surely someone else has experienced a similar problem?
