[Bdi4emc-help] Install probs, bdi-4.30

"...text mode...[s]o the only thing to do is tap the reset 
button...graphical install...freezes the box."

When it rains, it pours!.

There's a legion of Linux haters out there who gave up when they ran 
into seemingly insurmountable problems like this. I'm not going to be an 
apologist for the Linux folks, but I will say I've had my share of balky 
installs with all sorts of O/Ses, not just Linux.

I had no difficulty installing BDI-4.30 on two very different boxes, one 
an HP8776c running a 1GHz AMD T-bird Athlon CPU, one a Dell XPS T450 
running a  450 MHz Intel PIII, so I don't have any learning experience 
to drawn from for advice. As I said in my first email, for me it 
"doesn't get any better than this." I'll be interested to hear what you 
decide is the source of your difficulties and what you did about it.

Good luck, Gene.
