The problem has something to do with your TX chipset in your motherboard. I remember quite a few people having problems with this. There IS a fix for it, though I don't remember what it is. You'll find the fix if you search the kernel mailing list in the december '97 - Feb '98 range, I think. You probably just need a more recent kernel. There are many places to find this archive. http://linux.ucs.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/ will work. > As a Linux novice I'm not sure what minimal hardware is required for my > first boot.
