2015-12-29 19:22:55 +0300 asked a question v-magine failing to mount floppy

I got an error earlier that was caused by the pxe boot kernel files being different to what was on the iso, which I fixed following instructions in the following post: http://ask.cloudbase.it/question/405/...

Not sure if the above is related to the new error, but it looks like the vm can't mount the virtual floppy with the kickstart config file on it, I created a copy of the vfd and mounted it in a Windows VM and it mounts and the file seems to be valid, any ideas?

Replacing the files fixes the issue, although I have another error now, will post in a separate thread.

This issue seems to be back, I downloaded the v-magine installer today 29/12/2015, error:

I'm going to try the suggestion above and grab an updated iso and pull the files from it.
