Thanx
I did rock on over to the Xandros forums with the same Q, but without success.
There are problems apparently with grub and Xandros but mine appears to be a different problem. It doesn't seem to like something in the H/W although it did install onto an older PIII 600

do you know if they fixed the bug in the commercial versions ?
