Hi John
Can you check your /var/log/installer directory
This sounds very similar to this thread I was involved with

The problem was that ubiquity was re-instating the stock kernel part way

At least for PCs I think there is no way to get 32bit-only capable
system. All the new CPUs are
IIRC, the ram choices were pretty limited on the 525 to 2 or 4Gb... so
to get 3.2 I had to pick 4... sounds plausible anyway, but I doubt that
it happened that way.

Well, since 32-bit system does not use much more than 2,8-3,2 GB of
RAM, I do not see point to put 4 GB in there.

Yes, but I was willing to go the extra mile for testing purposes after a

John, can You explain, why do You use so much of RAM?

Hi
I downloaded and burnt a CD of 2.4.6 and popped it into a windows machine
to have a look at it
But... (I think) I can't actually run EMC because it wants to install a
stepper config file on the drive, which I assume is a bad idea because it
has windows on it.
The only options I have are "
the only idea I have is that there might have been a problem during
burning...
did you verify the md5sum of the cd before writing?
