Public bug reported: Using a Dell Dimension 4600C with a 2.8GHz Pentium 4 with 512MB RAM and either the i848 or i865 chipset (as reported by memtest) the system hangs on booting either the LiveCD or selecting the Install option.
When choosing the Install option from the boot menu the system never makes it to the first installation screen.. Pushing the eject button on the CD drive door does cause some CD Drive activity for two or three second but nothing happens after waiting thirty seconds or so. Also pushing the power button momentarily does elicit some CD drive activity but with no shutdown. No visible error messages on any of the virtual consoles. When booting into Live mode the screen shows the background and the hard disk icon comes into focus but it does not progress any further. I was not able to find any error message either. I do have a functional Intrepid install on the computer and was hoping to o a clean install of the beta. Thank you.
