Here are the results: It can be installed with no problems (when you try, make a backup at least of your System Folder) but it crashes on bootup. Or does not start, actually. No crashpage comes up ay the first time. But when you follow the instructions given in that error message, you will definitely call up the crashpage. It makes something unrecoverable, because after trying once, you won't get anywhere with it withhout a hardware reset... I tested it on a Mega4, TT may give different results. ...We are waiting for you, Dave... * Jari Lehto * 90-387939 * Jari.Lehto@hut.fi * Music, love & * * Tenavatie 19 A * 90-382887 * jartsu@vipunen.hut.fi * friendship! * * 00760 HELSINKI * 94040/02887 * jartsu@otax.hut.fi * Garlic, beer &* * Finland * fax +358 0 8735916 * s37837k@saha.hut.fi * sausage! *
