I get the Lilo: prompt & Language selection. Select En-US and hit return. The machine locks up solid. I need to pull powercord/battery to restart. Have tried with different ACPI flags, boot-kbd flags. No use. On the same laptop, I managed to install MEPIS, Knoppix etc (all based on Debian) Mandrake/RedHat/Gentoo etc run fine. -Anand -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
