I have a problem installing either RH 7.1 or Mandrake 8.0.
In either case, installation never really starts. I'm
allowed to choose installation mode, after which the initial
boot system is loaded from the CD ROM and the hardware
system is checked over. However, when it comes time for the
installation utility to come up, the system just hangs. For
example, in Mandrake 8.0 installation, I finally get a
message about drinking eggs and welcome to linux
mandrake. Then the system completely freezes. Selection of
any other installation mode, such as expert, rescue, or text all
lead to a freeze up at the same point. RH 7.1 exhibits the same
behavior.
I had no problems at all installing RH 7.0 or Mandrake 7.2
on the same system. I`m using an Abit VP6 dual processor
motherboard, with 2 P-III 800`s, 3 HDD`s (windows installed
on 1), a cdrom, and a cd-rw. Using an SB Live sound card,
and an Asus AGP-7100 graphics card.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Steve
