Ok, so I boot the computer up with the 7.2 Install CD (burned from the
ISO File, I used 2 separate CDs, each downloaded on and burnt on
different computers. Anyways, the spash screen comes up (press F1 for
help, Enter to continue with install/upgrade) ... then when Linux boots
to go to the install, my computer freezes in the middle of the bootup
and says ...

hda=Toshiba DVD-ROM SD-1212, Atapi CDROM drive
hdb=Creative CD-RW, Atapi CDROM drive
hdc=Iomega Zip 100, Atapi Floppy Drive
hde=Quantum Fireballp KX27.3GB, ATA Disk Drive
ide0=#-#,# on IRQ14
ide1=#-#,# on IRQ15
ide2=#-#,# on IRQ10
*stall here*

All the hardware is correct, I don't remember the #'s in the ide part,
but I can write them down and post them if you need them... does anyone
know how to get around this? I really want to try out Mandrake 7.2, I've
heard many good things about it, but I can't get it installed. Oh yes,
and one more thing, my computer installed Mandrake 7.1 perfectly the
first time (I'm running it right now), so I doubt it's a problem with
incompatible equipment... Anyone? Please?

Brian
