I have tried twice (and it failed twice the same way) to install the Vail Beta under VMware Workstation 7.0 running on Windows XP (32-bits) but on an AMD x64 CPU dual core with plenty of disk space and 4 GB of RAM.

The first part of the install goes fine, but then it reboots to continue the install and throws a fatal error at about 37%. I’ve saved the logs and looked them over. They’re not of much help figuring out exactly what the install error is.

Does anyone here have any expertise in deciphering the install log errors for usefull information?

I will post screen-shots and the logs shortly.

Thanks!

Screen shots attached.

Here are the log files.

Thanks in advance for any help!

I'm not seeing anything obvious in the logs, but it'd be helpful to know at what time that failure occurred so it'd be easier to wade through the logs. You can try searching Connect for other error reports, too.

I've given up on Vail in a VM.

I'm adding RAM to my old MMS, getting the debug cable for keyboard, video and mouse, and a USB SATA external enclosure to erase the system drive. Then I'll try Vail on the MMS.
