After the first installation I wanted to test if FD is now able to detect if it has enough free space (or at least is able to abort the install process in a friendly manner).
I renamed directory FDOS to FDOSALT. About 6,5 MB free space are left on C: - I booted from CD and select Install, FD does not complain! - again I didn't change language or directory - during installation of the packages the system stops. No message that it has a problem is displayed - I press Ctrl-C, the system asks: "Are you sure wou wish to abort...". I press Y. - a message appears: "Warning: error 255 occured! Press a key to continue" I press a key. - now again some dozens "undefined message x.x" appear, at last I'm in the CD boot menu again. - I press h to boot from HD. On the screen: Booting from local disk... ....... Nothing more. Ctrl-C does nothing. Have to do a "reset". The C: drive is not bootable anymore :((. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
