Hi,
I hesitated sending this message, since we'll all get one of those
"automated" reponses from Randel, but anyway...
I have been trying to install Linux 4.2 on two seperate machines and
have different, yet simular problems...
(Note: I decide to use 4.2 instead of 5.0 since 5.0 just came out, and
might not be as bug free as 4.2. I have been using 4.1 on a work
machine with little problems, unfortunately I dont have the install disk
for 4.1, and do have 4.2.)
On my home PC, I have Windows 95 (my guess as a problem causer) and Win
NT (installed on a standard Fat 16 partition).
I partitioned a Linux Native, and linux swap, and when through the Linux
install, with "No problems?", but when I try to boot to linux, it
hangs, I tried the standard linux lifo, and also system commander (a
multiple boot program), both give me the same result, namely I get "Li",
not "Linux:" at the bottom of the screen and it just hangs.
I also tried to install the same version on a laptop at work (a compaq).
This machine has a drive that is totally linux native, with a linux swap
disk, and installed Linux 4.2 with no problem, but when I try to boot
up, it just gives me the simular "Li" and hangs.
Does anyone have any ideas that might be helpful? Or can you direct me
to a source that might. I got Redhat 4.2 from a Linux book, and not
Redhat, so I dont think I can get support from them???
Thanks in advance for any offered help,
Have a happy new year,
Brad.
