I am trying to install SCO on a DEll 6350 server. This server crashed because of drive problems and I am rebuilding it from scratch with ne drives. However, the installation is not passing 0%.

when I boot the server from the CDROM , I see "Low buffers unvailable i/o bufs = 208212k, converted to high bufs=201364).

is this what is causing the problem? my drives are good...they are all online. My RAID setup is good too.

The installtion passes creating the root files system, partitioning disk 0....then it gets stuck on "Installation begins..and shows the status bar..with 0%...then it does not go anywhere after that.

Please help

Thanks
