What CPU do you have?
Installation went like a dream when I installed it. They even give you a game of Connect 4 to play while yer waiting :D

AMD Sempron 2400, i hate sempron chips but xp athlons artnd made anymore
piratePenguin:
I have no idea what Sempron is (unless it's the low class Athlons?)...
I know that BeOS only supports very few chips. The official BeOS didn't even support x86 chips, the BeOS Max Personal Edition version you (and I) were trying is some kinda port or something... Or just a different version, probably.
It's not the official one or something, I don't quite understand it myself (as you can see) ;)
http://www.bebits.com/app/3148 for more info on that ISO. It's the Intel (x86) version.
Maybe Mr. X will come along and clear a few things up for us...
solemnwarning:
As far as im already concerned BeOS is not as good as Linux, linux supports most chips not very few, linux normally has real isos that i dont need to run cdrecord dev=/dev/hdd speed=32 -eject -v -data floppycd.img BeOS5PEMaxEditionV31b1.iso to burn
