 Another information:

 When trying to making system bootable (I installed the whole thing over
 again)
 it displays a message: "Problem: PALO wasnīt able to install. You can
stuill
 remote boot and
 point the root device to the installed system".

 How the heck I do that??? =)

 If I try to "make the system bootable" again then the screen goes clear and
 it returns to the beggining
 of the process like I said below.

 Sorry to bother you with those questions, but I really would like to run
 this dist on my machine..

 Thanks!
 Jeffo.
