However, on reboot when the Thinkpad logo came back up, the machine hung. This is not typical behavior of the Thinkpad. Powering off and then back on was successful though. I like the two-stage install, it's gotten a lot more refined since last year when I tried this out :) One thing I found confusing at first was the placement of the "Finish" selection after I was done partitioning. I kept selecting "Continue", and after a few loops I figured it out. You may wish to be a little less ambiguous with that menu format. Who would I email regarding the base-config installer? I encountered a couple of things that might be good to clean up. Thanks a lot for making this work so smoothly! -- Steve Killen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
