I`ve installed Debian GNU v3.0r2(non us) Everything seemed OK until I was asked for the user name and passwords to log in, this I inserted and instead of getting a GUI or some sort of window all that happened was I got a flashing curser. I`ve tried different flavours but get the same results and I`m fed up reading help pages off the internet. Why doesn`t anything happen if the program has installed ? Near the end of program running there was some seek error messages
seek errors probably are not indicative of a good thing.
My guess is that whatever's wrong (scratched CD, flakey IDE controller, iffy RAM), your system is not getting properly installed.
I'd suggest popping a live CD (knoppix.org, etc) into your system and seeing if it boots up properly. What you've described "feels" like a hardware problem.
