Guys,
Am testing GT5-G-32bit in vmware. Default settings other than 3200MB memory.
The installer works fine up until 99% (possibly when it needs to install grub).
Memory usage is almost maxed out. Install ISO and VMdrive on fast Raid0.

Any ideas?
This is not a bug, so i will move this to beginners section.
Second, assigning 3.2 GB of RAM to your virtual machine is nonsense. You should read upon creating, setting and using Vm machines.
Why don't you start with the provided Vmware image first, it seems that the problem is in your setup of Vm machine.
initially set VM with 1024MB of ram but all the ram was consumed and the install hung at 99%.... thus i thought it could be out of memory so i temp increased it to the max a 32bit machine will handle.
Install now worked after recreating VM, might have been an issue with the virtual disk?
are you sure it really hangs?
my install was sitting on 99% for 5 mins, as i noticed HDD working i let it continue, then 5 min later it stated "almost done" instead of "soon done" then 5 min after that it was installed.
It will hang for a while dont fret my laptop took 20 mins at 99% and desktop took 15 mins just the way the files are being copied the inital copy is quick when the system is setting up the files it will take a while
and in vmware hmmm maybe longer
I just installed it on a VM. It sat at 99% for a while, probably 15-20min.
Pacience is a virtue!!!
it will eventually go through young one.

try to turn off your network connection before installing, it should go faster.Quote:
