Glen (and others),
         I am getting an error when attempting to install the latest 
Rocks/BioBrew applications.  I just downloaded BioBrew-4.1 and Rocks 4.1 
cluster iso files:
area51+base+ganglia+hpc+java+kernel+sge+web-server-20.10.2005-14.19.12.i386.disk1.iso 
(from www.rocksclusters.org/)
biobrew-4.1-0.i386.iso (froim ftp.bioinformatics.org)

I am installing these onto a Pentium IV base PC as the frontend, the same 
hardware previously ran Rocks 3.3.  During the installation, after the 
rolls are loaded from the CD's there is a message about "merging base 
distributions".  At this point the installation fails with the following 
message "You are trying to install on a machine which isn't supported by 
this release of Rocks."

This sounds like a hardware issue, but the same hardware was running Rock 
3.3.  Any suggests would be appreciated.
Thanks,
         John Rux
