Hi, I am attempting to install E-smith 4.1.2 but the installation keeps failing. I am booting from a boot floppy as the machine will not boot from the CD - I have tried recreating the floppy several times but it always fails at the same point. I type "accept", it loads initrd, loads vmlinuz, displays the messages about probing PCI and detects the HDD etc. I then see a blue screen for about 5 seconds and then I get the message "EXEC: Exec Format Error" then "Install exited abnormally". The system then shuts down. Does anyone know what this means?
thanks
Arend
