[QUOTE="baggss, post: 887798, member: 6762"] This has happened to me once or twice in my life. Unfortunately when the system failed to boot after the first A&I the installation was probably never completed. As such the second A&I can't find a valid system to Archive and then Install a new one. The system is basically stuck. Assuming you can boot from the CD/DVD still, you may have to do a clean install vice an A&I. This means you will lose everything on your disc. [/QUOTE]
