Did you check the md5sum of your downloaded iso to see if it was downloaded OK? And how big is the partition that you are trying to install Salix on?

That depends. What operating system are you using now? If you using linux you can do it by opening a terminal window in the same directory the iso images is and running

Code: Select all

md5sum filename.iso

and check the output against the md5sums mentioned in the download page: http://www.salixos.org/wiki/index.php?title=Download

this problem with the partitiong is with 64 bit only [autopartitiong] not 32 bit.

The problem was actually with both 32bit and 64bit 13.0.2 iso images. That's why there are both 32bit and 64bit 13.0.2a iso images now. But this problem seems unrelated to that.

I have no idea what you can use for windows, but I am sure google does. Try a search for "windows md5sum".

the md5sum of the iso that i downloaded is correct, now i burn with another program one cd and reinstall salix.
