I attempted to upgrade an R6 running Pre-Release 4.1.1.1 to
4.1.7 Inserted the 4.1.7 pcmcia card and turned it on. After booting
and trying to install the following message appeared
The cluster chain for 01985477-2-14-1-0 refers to a cluster
that is being used by another file. The system is unable to repair this
error. Select OK to continue checking for errors on this volume or
Cancel to stop. Touched OK then;
The directory entry for election.adt specifies an incorrect
file size. Do you want this automatically repaired now? Touched OK
then the same question but referring to election.brs.
Called Jeff Hallmark who stepped me through when after I was
able to get to My Computer on the desktop. Found a Ballotstation file
with 22 sets of numbers and a file "Current Election". Deleted the
22 sets of numbers and re-booted without the previous errors. I then
inserted the 4.1.7 PCMCIA card and the installation was successful.
Steve Ricke suggested the previous demo elections in Archive
in Supervisor Functions should have been purged.
