Yes, it can happen then too, but only if you have the USB stick inserted _before_ the first hardware detection stage. You can avoid it by inserting it only when prompted and removing it when no longer needed. Same goes for net-based installs BTW: just remove the USB stick after loading the firmware and you'll be OK. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
