Hi, I'm trying to install Linux for the first time.  I'm pretty much a Linux 
newbie.

Anyhoo I have a Debian Linux CD I picked up from Linuxworld last year.  It's 
version 2.2.12.  I boot off of the CD and it gets to the boot: prompt just 
fine, and then I hit enter and it has a whole bunch of messages of things 
like RAM, PS/2 mouse, ide1, blahblah.  Then it goes to:

(scsi0) <Adaptec AIC-7850 SCSI host adapter> found at PCI7/0
(scsi0) Narrow Channel, SCSI ID=7, 3/255 SCBs
(scsi0) Downloading sequencer code... 406 instructions downloaded
NCR53x406a: no available ports found

After that it just locks up, no Num Lock no nothing.  No Ctrl-Alt-Delete but 
I'm not sure if that's a Microsoft deal and if that still applies in Linux.

Any suggestions?

Clem
