There are a number of useful ways of getting to install the base system: 1) CD (presently a problem?) 2) HFS partition on your hard drive 3) netboot Firstly, have you tried keying in 'install' at the boot prompt? I got the same strange messages as you report on my install system, but it all worked fine. If you can spare a small HFS partition - make sure it is not an HFS+ partition - on your drive, you may find that installing, or at least booting, from disk works very well. You could make your HFS parition just big enough to hold the boot floppies, and then install the base system from CD.
