I may well try this, but I have reason to doubt the
results will be much different. My recollection is
that we had a lot of trouble getting the main (1.2 GA)
boot partition up and running. Steven had to do
various acrobatic maneuvers over the course of an
extended Help Desk session, in order to make it work.
Even so, we never did get Peer working, not even after
a couple of repeat visits. (Though I gather we edged
somewhat closer to this goal.) And the 1.2GA was done
as a clean install, from scratch -- no migration
involved. Some folders, such as Internet, never did
get fully populated -- more evidence of an incomplete
install, despite the extensive countermeasures.
So, here's my working hypothesis. I think that this
whole train derails at the point that Peer install
fails. (As also happened in the other partition, with
1.2GA.) Since I have no home network, my first
reaction was 'Who Cares ?' But that probably turns
out to be wrong. When the install process bombs out
at Peer, SNAP and some other things never go on
either, because they come later and the install never
gets that far. I can just about bet you that this
will also prove to be the case with a clean, No
Migration install.
