Alpha 2 - General System Error when installing

Forum thread started by civ247 on Mon, 2010-05-10 18:08

Hello,

During the install i get an error like "General system error"

The file it's on when this happens is libwebcore.so but i dont know if this is actually the cause.

I can however boot the live cd to the desktop.

Perhaps related - when I try to launch webpositive I get an error like 'Could not open "WebPositive" with webpositive' - or something like that.

I burned two cds and get the exact same errors.

Also when booting i get a "fatal exception "NMI Interrupt" occured! Error code: 0x0" however i can just exit out of the shell and continue booting - i dont think this is part of the problem.

This should help you get Haiku installed:

Thanks - that fixed it, posting this from a sucessfully installed Haiku.

The NMI Interrupt bug during boot also seems to be gone.
