It was the hard-disk.... don't know why but when I change the hard-disk I could install from a USB drive.
I install wiley well... I had to type live to get it going. Live session worked fine... install went fine. Error installing TVTime... already reported but the TV works better then ever... :-) Going to try to make a movie to see how it goes. Question Since I'm on a new system, Do I need to do the code of conduct thing again?
