Problems installing PCLinuxOS
Submitted by Philippe (not registered) on Fri, 2009-02-13 09:16.

Am trying to install the program on my laptop and keep getting the same error message:

ERROR: Unable to mount loop filesystem,

Commant were:

Losetup /dev/loop0 initrd/cdrom/livecd.sqfs

mount -r -t squashfs /dev/loop0, initrd/loopfs

Dropping you to a limited shell

Loading /initrd/binash

Then the pc is frozen. Out of curiosity I tried to check what would happen on my other laptop (the first is on Windows XP and the 2nd one on Windows Vista) and I get the same error message.

Can you help?
