Hi folks,
Just thought I would let you know that that the Install problems, are not
just
with SCSI, as I get the same results with my ide maxtor drive and Yosemite
S1346
Enhanced ide controller. starts to install and boom, craps out.
I tried playing with CMOS .. Various partitions and sizes .. and I've
reinstalled so many times, I'm about at the end of my rope.
Although I do get error messages like:
Protection fault: 0000
CPU 0
and so on.
Zero fun indeed! .... Mark F.
