It was expected though as I had heard that the clean install on a partition
was the way to go, but I chose the upgrade installation just to see what
happens. The install Failed at the last part, when the desktop was being
configured. The install Recovery option wasnt even close to fixing the errors
and allowing completion. It seemed to me, the install went way too far before
discovery that it wasnt ever going to be successful. I think its possible The
critical failure was because the installer lost track of my hard drives. The
error messages indicated incorrect hard drive types and Paths. At the time, I
thought the install just went on "automatic Pilot" seems it wasnt even
looking at my bios settings?
Anyhow, The Clean install went fine, but I hope the next Beta's comes
soon. The 5384 build Is still very Slow and Clunky, I have to restart hour
or so of heavy use to keep it from going buggy, stalling or freezing up.
I think the final release of Vista Ultimate will be awsome though, and all
the MS connectivity promises will be met.
 
You are doing a great job beta testing every time something does not work.
But be sure to file the bug report.
