Description kallist0 2003-12-11 16:02:25 UTC 
The typo is here:

 "We need to make this partition bootable. Type <a> to toggle the bootable flag on this partition. If you press <p> again, you will notice that an * is placed in the "Boot" column."

<a> should read <1>

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Follow the instructions.
Actual Results:  
Failed system install.

Expected Results:  
It should flag the partition as 'boot' instead of 'read only'

The current text is this:

"We need to make this partition bootable. Type a to toggle the bootable flag on a partition and select 1. If you press p again, you will notice that an * is placed in the "Boot" column."

Is this a correct description? If so, please close this bug.

I believe this has been fixed a while back, don't remember the bugnumber though.
