as I get EMC2 not running with 4.38, I tried again to install 4.30, but in graphical mode I get an error at the end of the installation, something with 'bad window'. In text mode key inputs at the end of the installation are written somewhere on the screen..., I think in december somebody described it... But some time ago, I had 4.30 running with graphical mode installation I guess, so there must be a way to install it. Today I made with a win98 bootdisk 'fdisk /mbr', and I guess I had success and removed GRUB. But the following try to install 4.30 caused the 'bad window' error again...
Without a lot more information as to where the install is crashing, the type of hardware, previous checks made, I can only give general answers. It sounds like you may have a bad burn or faulty hardware, so a few questions:
Did you check the md5 sum of the downloaded ISO images ?
Does the mediacheck boot option on the CD verify the contents OK ?
Is the memory in the computer pass the memtest86 tests ?
Have you tried another CDROM drive and/or a different media ?
If you had a working BDI-4.3 install, why re-install when apt-get would have up/downgraded packages for you ?
Regards, Paul.

Hi Paul, thanks for your help! As there is an instruction how to install EMC2 on 4.38 at linuxcnc.org, I decided to install 4.38 and try it out again. But when I enter "cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/emc login" in the bash, I get the message: "bash: cvs: command not found". Do you now whats wrong there? I am quite unfamiliar with Linux, so please excuse questions, which seem to be stupid. Greetings Martin
