This will probably filter out some CPU-related ones. BTW, it's still impossible to install win2k on a 1.5G disk. I will test the following previously-known bugs tomorrow - but feel free to race with me: 1) It's impossible to install SP4 on top of win2k SP0 installed on 2G disk 2) Impossible to install Adobe Reader 6.0 on win2k SP4 installed from sliptreamed CD on a 2G disk 3) Firefox segfaults on win2k SP0 when entering text on www.google.com and pressing Enter -- Alexander E.
