[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk@Home Installation Problems

If your machine has been used for Windows, book from a DOS floppy and
use FDISK to remove the partitions and try again.  I've never tried to
install on a machine with existing partitions but never had a failure on
a machine without them.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk at Home Installation Problems

I just found out about Asterisk (yes, from the Slashdot posting), and I
would like to set up my old computer as a dedicated box for my house
using
Asterisk at Home.  However, when I try to install from the bootable CD, it
gets
to 54% of copying the image to the hard drive and then says that an
error
occurred because I have run out of disk space.  The machine has a 10.2
GB
hard drive, so I don't think space should be a problem since the image
is
being copied over from a CD...  right?  If not, what else could be the
problem?

Also, I noticed that when I boot with an XP CD to look at the
partitions,
the first one is about 800 MB, the scond one is 9 GB, and the third one
is a
couple hundred MB.  I would assume it's trying to use the 9 GB one and
the
800 MB one is the swap, right?  If not, is there any command-line
parameter
I could use at the beginning of setup to fix things?

If it helps, my specs are as follows:

450 MHz PII
256 MB SDRAM
i440BX-based motherboard
nVidia TNT AGP video card
3Com 3C905TX NIC

Thanks,

David Fulton-Howard
