the freezing is truly odd... note that i DO have win98 se installed and it seems to work fine.
the freezing problem is quite random...it seems to occur at very random intervals. sometimes, the install (whether it's deb, freebsd, mandrake) goes just fine. then, once i log in, even in good ol' CLI mode, the system suddenly freezes and i can't even type! yikes! so, lo and behold, i think it's prolly my computer...it's been acting really weird lately. for instance, today, i turned the sucker on and i had to restart twice because the BIOS wasn't even showing up! ARGH! :( me sad... i love/hate computers...don't you? :) -jeff p.s. again, win98 se is running...that's how i get this email out.... so sad...i love debian so much and i wish i could bring this piece of junk back to life somehow. maybe i shoulda listened to mom and been a doctor or somethin'. :) ----- Original Message ----- From: Sunny Dubey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Jeff Reed <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <debian-user@lists.debian.org> Sent: Saturday, September 29, 2001 11:10 PM Subject: Re: install freezing > On Saturday 29 September 2001 11:12 pm, Jeff Reed wrote: > > welp, i'm sure this problem has made it to the list a million times. > that doesn't mattter > > mind telling us where it freezes?? > like does it freeze on the kernel bootup, or when you try to load a module, > or something else? > > additionally, do other NON unix OS'es (Windows/BeOS etc etc) work on this > computer?? > > Sunny Dubey
