Actual Results:  See error message above.  The system reboots once the 
error is saved to floppy and error is acknowledged.

Expected Results:  ??  Don't know - have never been able to complete 
install but I bet this isn't quite right.

Comment 2 Will Adkins 2001-03-04 07:12:53 UTC
This doesn't really appear to be the same issue as 18302 if the issue was too 
many CD Drives.  The system that generated this error is running Linux v7 with 
1 CD-Rom Drive and 3 hard drives for a total of 4.
