RE: BeOS 4.5

["Paul Sims" <nospam [at] lombard.co.uk>]

looks like the CD may be corrupt. I know mine works fine - bring the 
machine along & we'll have a bash at building it on Saturday with my disk - 
pretty hands-on eh?

Before then, can you check the supported hardware list against your 
machine. I think I've got more  hardware in my spares box than BeOS 
supports :(

BTW, other than the mailing list is there any other publicity for Saturday 
- I'm spreading the word among ICL but don't expect (m)any takers.
