Comment 1 Michael Fulbright 2001-03-12 16:16:56 UTC
Were you installing to the same partition which contains the hard drive image
you were installing from?

Comment 2 Brennan Thompson 2001-03-12 16:24:07 UTC
Yes.

Comment 3 Michael Fulbright 2001-04-02 15:56:52 UTC
This is currently not supported, we are going to have this fixed for the next
release.

You can try using CD's burned from the ISO images available for download, or put
the hard drive image on a different partition or drive.
