i'v already got 7.1 installed, and am trying to perform an upgrade to 7.2 but i get a wierd error message.
after booting up from the cd, then pressing "enter" to continue with the upgrade process, and then watching it detect my hard drives, i get the error message "invalid argument, can't mount ram disk...this shouldn't happen...we are now going to reboot".
i've got 3 machines that are configured similarly, and i get this same message on all 3 machines. i thought that i might have downloaded a bad copy of mandrake 7.2, so i re-downloaded from a different ftp site, burned new sets of install discs, yet i still get the same error?
all of the machines are multi-boot machines and have more than 256MB RAM each (if that's an issue..)
anyone have an idea as to what is causing the problem? or better yet...how to solve the problem?
thanks in advance...
