I assume this is also VirtuaL PC on the mac, right? I've been using VirtualPC on the PC for a lot of th dev work on the intaller, and it should certaily work there.. Does this only occur with win2k, or does it also occur with XP/2003/whatever? In the end I doubt there is much we can do, it seems to be an issue of Virtual PC not being close enough to a PC. //Magnus >-----Original Message----- >From: pgsql-general-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx >[mailto:pgsql-general-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jonel Rienton >Sent: den 20 februari 2005 00:52 >To: postgres list >Cc: sdownie@xxxxxxxxx >Subject: Re: PGSQL 8.0.1 Win 2K Installation Problem > > >-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- >Hash: SHA1 > >just to let you know, i got the same error message when i tried it on >my win2k inistall emulated by Virtual PC 7. > >- ----- >Jonel Rienton >http://blogs.road14.com >Software Developer, *nix Advocate >On Feb 19, 2005, at 1:14 PM, S.D. wrote: > >> >> I downloaded the PostGreSQL Windows installer from another FTP site >> but I still ended up with the same arcane error message when I tried >> to install PostGreSQL 8.0.1 on W2K running inside Virtual PC 6 >> (Macintosh). >> >> I then ran the installer on a "real" computer (Athlon 1900 running >> W2K) and the installation went as advertised. >> >> So I've got to believe that there is some bug that results from the >> interaction of the PostGreSQL installer and the chip set emulated by >> Virtual PC 6.
