hdavy2002 Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Same here pal, i tried diffrent images and same thing. it has a problems with the wireless part of it. Try installing in vmware like I am doing right now into a hard drive partition. it should be primary and id=af then use the chain0 method and boot native. search the forum for the steps.
