Last week my copy of MacMinix 1.5 finally arrived from P-H and
I attempted to follow the installation procedures.  I was able
to boot from the floppies, etc. but when I attempted to follow
the instructions for building the system on my hard disk I ran
into problems.  After I completed creating the hard disk partitions
(files), and followed the instructions for executing the script
that builds the /root file system, everything seemed fine.  But
when I quit and then attempted to reboot from the hard disk I
got the error message that a complete file system wasn't installed
(or word to that effect), hit any key, and then was exited.

If previous postings have already addressed this problem I would
appreciate copies of same.  If anyone else has overcome this
difficulty, I'd appreciate help.  If there are addenda or errata
sheets to the MacMinix documentation that I should have received,
I'd like to know that also.

Thanks in advance for any and all help offered.
