After formatting all the partions on a 4GB WD, it tries to transfer the images to the hd and when it generated i/o errors off the sbpcd drive, it claimed that it didnt have enough space on the hard-drive. This was a text install, 32MB machine,4GB HD. Be nice if it told the truth on the primary screen. The cd's were a download from ftp.beta and had been used on 3 machines, one also having a sbpcd drive (couldnt install because of memory) but it did copy ok on that machine. Anyway, after finally deciding to revert to 7.0 it locked up on formatting /usr. I ran the wdc diags and zeroed out the harddrive and now it is back to being a firewall/ppp server. (cf #38132). I may attempt another upgrade or wait until I get "official " CD's
Sounds like that cd drive might have a problem...if sbpcd works in one machine but not the other... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 38229 ***
