-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Package: installation-reports Debian-installer-version: beta4 (http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/ cdimage-testing/sarge_d-i/i386/beta4/sarge-i386-netinst.iso) uname -a: 2.6.5-1-386 Date: 23-8-2004 Method: Installation from a CD
Machine: Dell D800 Processor: Pentium 4 Memory: 512 Mb Root Device: IDE When trying to boot from linux26 or expert26 on the Dell the PC freezes completely without further notice. The only way to restart the process is to switch off the laptop. The freeze happens after loading the modules. The last message on the screen says the following: Detecting hardware to find CD-ROM drives Then a progress bar at 96 % Starting PC Card services.... I have also tried expert26 unloading all modules. The PC still freezes at the same point (only the status bar says 4% in that case since I unchecked all modules). This stage is acomplished sucessfully with linux24, although I have not completed the installation since I want a 2.6 kernel on the laptop. TIA. - -- ____________________________________________________________ Pablo de Vicente, http://www.oan.es, OAN Spain -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBKaB/SItUpHl6kJERAlizAJ973u4H3MjOCah2JtGFA7n5ASPH7wCdFGyl 1GYhDoVU2SugG4qVlnen7A8= =wT7u -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
