#116 freezes during installation

If only keyring.prc is being installed, the system displays a
message that DESLib is needed and freezes. Soft reset
doesn't help, only the hard reset clears the problem. This
is ridiculous.

    I can't reproduce this. I tried several different ROM versions under pose
    and it never freezed. It just quits keyring as expected.

    I probably was not quite clear about the problem. It happens
    during the
    installation, not on an attempt to use keyring. I am surprised
    that it
    checks for DESLib.prc during the installation or right after it at
    all.

    I have PalmVx, OS 3.5.3
    During HotSync the program surprisingly produced a message
    that DESLib.prc
    was not present and froze on this message window. After a
    soft reset, the
    system gets to the same message or crashes (I tried several
    soft resets
    before going to a hard reset).
    I tried this twice. Happened both times. I am not really willing to
    experiment with this more since the condition is cured only by a
    HardReset.
    Additional conditions that might be pertinent:
    1. Only about 150K free memory, maybe slightly less
    2. SyncBack activated
    3. Hack 'Crash' is activated, although since X-Master
    deactivates all hacks
    during HotSync, it should not interfere with the installation
    process, but
    it appears after the soft resets.

    Hope this helps.

    Fixed in 1.2.1

    BTW, with 1.2 it should be possible to do a "no extension" reset (Hold
    PageUp while pressing reset). This way you can get around a hard reset.
