hello hello, i'm a (hopefully soon to be) new debian user and am having problems with installation. i've turned to many avenues for help, and this may be my last one so thanks a bazillion ahead of time.
here's a brief system list: micron millenia transport notebook pentium/133mhz over 40mb ram 2 gig partition split approximately 50 win95/50 (hopefully) linux working floppy drive here's what happens, both when i try installing from the floppy disk or from the dos partition: right after the page or so of text (goes by real quick) the screen blacksout, never to recover. if i press ctrl-alt-del the screen comes back on for a moment, apparently in the process of installing (something about choosing monochrome or color but that too goes by quickly) but then the machine restarts. it seems to be working just fine except that the screen isn't lit up because as i was getting up from the machine this last attempt, i noticed that if i was at the proper angle i could kinda sorta read the text on the screen. but i couldn't get too far and wouldn't want to muck with partitions on a barely readable screen... well, friends, that's where i'm at. any help would be tremendously appreciated. thank you in advance, ari [EMAIL PROTECTED]
