I will when it stops complaining about my partition tables on "used" HDDs.

I just tried it again just for drill on my storage box. It is a PIII,
running W4 on Fat16 with a storage drive that is three JFS partitions on
a 500G PATA. No-go.

I thought I had gotten it install on my primary machine which a Pentium
D. So I pulled the boot drive from the storage box and plugged it into
the primary. When I first plugged it in the BIOS didn't see it - this
happens sometimes - so IVM saw the second drive as the only drive. That
drive is nothing but three HPFS in an extended. IVM didn't even like
that partition table.

I rebooted, the first drive is seen, IVM complains about the second drive.

I pulled the second drive, IVM now has no complaints. Nor will it
create a bootable partition. It goes thru the motions and then says LVM
error (33) Selected partition is not bootable. Yes, I selected make it
bootable.

Yet on my laptop 1.2RM and 2.0 RC4 both installed OK.
