interesting. i used ppcgeeks/ppcgeeks

anyway. so far, first impression. kick a@@. y'all have outdone yourselves once more. my donation has been sent. it's not much, not enough for the work y'all do, so i hope my most sincere thanks will be sufficient for now.
thanks again!

I have a problem. When I tell it to build it runs thru the scanning phase and at the first phase of extracting I get the error:

Kitchens|Apache_Helmi_WM6.1.rar file create error

any suggestions what to do? I tried a re-start, and update. Same thing.

Thanks,
Jack

Greetings all: I am running w2k sp4. The buildOS.msi will not install, it generates an error message stating MDAC 2.7 is needed. Found it on MS, however it pauses halfway thru the install and rolls back to the original, effectively cancelling the install. Have tried the fixes here:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/309166

I have MDAC 2.8, its 5724 kB. The fix in the kb references modifying the Windows Installer package (.msi) file by using the Orca database editor. Add a custom action, and then run the custom action from your Windows Installer package. This workaround prevents the call to the Secedit.exe file. Additionally, modify the Windows Installer package so that the package will modify the permissions for the BidInterface subkey in the registry.

This is a real PITA. Im going to fire up my XP laptop. If I get more time, I'll post the results of modding the MDAC_typ for w2k. But as Guru stated, probably not worth it.

BTW, I use my XP laptop for flashing, maybe the msi will install better on XP?

windows 2000 is a bad choice. BuildOS should run on it, but the experience will be miserable as compared to XP or Vista. I strongly urge you to find an XP or Vista computer.

That's a new one for me. What OS? Do you have plenty of drive space available (300-400MB at a minimum). Did you install to the default location or to some other location?

The username/password is used to determine what downloads are available for you and grants access to development builds for beta-testers and developers.

I'm running Vista Basic same as I have used with the 6.0 kitchen. Plenty of room and it seems to go through everything smoothly until then. I even tried going all the way back to just the items checked from the install in case it was a space issue. I have plenty (6+gig) on my pc so I don't think that's the issue. Should I uninstall and re-install?
(same error as fresh-2-death shows above.

Thanks for the help!
