However on installation it stops at the configure mouse section. It gives me a menu button to carry on installation but nothing works (apart from setting the root password). I also can not make a boot floppy, it asks me to put the floppy in the drive but does not write anything to the disk. Does anyone know what's up with it? Ashley Mr. Ashley T.

Does your BIOS support booting off of CD-ROM? If so, if you enable it, it will begin the installation. I haven't tried making boot floppies from that CD-ROM that I distributed, as I always boot of off CD-ROM these days :) M.
