RE: [coLinux-users] Windows XP SP2 install crash question

Ugh.  Well that rules out one line of thought.  I had been able to do the
install without issue on T42s and thought that maybe there was some
significant change.  The only other variable that changed was the original
installs on the T42s were with SP1, and SP2 was applied post install--so I
might try peeling back SP2 and seeing what happens.

I have successfully installed the .63 package on an IBM T43 running 
WinXP SP2.
(I do have Administrator privileges on my account.) Although this might 
not help you
that much, it at least shows that it should be possible.
(The remaining issue I am struggling with is an XDMCP problem, I am not 
able to connect
an X Terminal (Xming, Cygwin, etc.) to the coLinux remote host.)
