Hello guys,

It happened to me as well, but I tried popuri's workaround just that I didn't 
edit menu.lst file (cuz I can't find it?) and I managed to get the whole 
installation process done. The thing is when it reboot for the 2nd time after 
CD 5 has completed, I'm stuck again with <grub> prompt.

I tried again :-

kernel /platform/i86pc/multiboot kernel/unix
module /platform/i86pc/boot-archive

It produced the same kernel panic msg :-

diskread: reading beyond end of ramdisk
         start = 0x2000, size = 0x2000
 o read superblock
 diskread: reading beyond end of ramdisk
         start = 0x8000, size = 0x800
 o read superblock
 panic: cannot mount boot archive
 Press any key to reboot

Question : 

a) Where is boot-archive located after the whole installation process done?
b) I tried testload /platform/i86pc/multiboot it produced output. But not with 
/platform/i86pc/boot-archive? Is that file missing? OR located elsewhere?

Thanks b4hand~!
