During install when the install reached starting lizard it stop with the message that the OS couldn't be installed on this computer. Solved the problem by installing Redmond Linux. Almost Caldera, but with a few surprises like a cdburner that actually works with my Iomega burner, a camera package that recognizes my cheap Dimera 3500 camera, and a the front end of a Sane scanner, but not the back end. Only drawback is that the only browser that comes bundled is Mozilla.
