Yesterday I was feeling adventerous and downloaded r4v3. I proceeded to upgrade from v2. Everything seemed to be going fine. That is until I rebooted. The computer gets past the bios stuff, starts to load off the hard drive. Then it hits. All I got was 99 99 99 99 99.. etc. for about half the screen.

So I figured what the heck, I don't have but one recording, I'll just do an Auto-Install. During the install, no matter what I did, I couldn't get the Timezone to be US-Eastern instead of US-Pacific. I figured, oh well, I'll change it later. I rebooted after the install. It went through all the bios stuff. It got to the point where it says "Verifying DMI....." and hung. It just stays there and doesn't boot to HDD.

Has anyone else had these problems?

My system specs are:

Mini-ITX MoBo w/1GHz processor
512 DDR RAM
160GB Maxtor HDD
WinTV 350

I burned the iso of v3 using k3b on my laptop onto a TDK CD-RW at 4x. Could a bad burn be to blame?

You can use the check disk (disk check?) option at the CD boot to verify that the burn was good.

sounds like something happened to your mbr. with a dos disk you can do fdisk /mbr and there is a way to do it from linux too, but I forget the switches. then try the autoinstall again.
