Disk 1 finished without problems. I reboot, get promted to insert disk 2 and it gets almost done, to about 9 minutes remaining, then says something like 'errors were encountered during installation' and the button changes to 'quit'.
I have done this twice now, with two different Disk #2's and got the same error both times.
After the first install, I was doing the software update, which was quite a list, and it hosed up on the last item in the list, which is all the 10.3 updates for OSX (like 97MB). Then it would no longer connect to the internet via ethernet. I restarted twice, repaired disk permissions, but that didn't fix anything. I mounted the disk 2 and ran the install.pkg manually and it finished without problems, but still acted flaky. I tried to reboot on a recovery CD I have, but when I selected it in 'startup disk' and clicked reboot, it would just sit there and never reboot. So I closed startup disk and restarted it via the apple menu, held the 'c' key down during boot, and it ignored it and booted to the HD like normal.
So after all these strange things, I decided I'd try it all again, used a different disk 2 cd, but got the same results.
This is a Pismo, 400mhz, 11.2G HD, 192MB.
Any suggestions? I've got to have this thing all setup for her by xmas eve.
