The problem I'm getting is that the computer just locks up. I've tried several times now and it locks up at different stages of the install process every time. The furthest I've got is half way through an 'Extract' of base11. Has anyone got any ideas? I'm sorry if I'm being vague, its because I don't quite know what information is relevant.
