Install of 2.3 onto old DP G4

Thu, 24 Oct 2002 12:38:23 -0400

What "package" did you choose to install (base, hpc, internet, development)
? I ran into the same thing a while back. I chose the Home Office install on
a drive with more than 1.3 gig free and I got the same error, even after I
deselected some packages. Go figure. When I chose the internet install,
everything worked just fine!
