I just built a new system. Windows runs okay, but the Redhat
installation keeps dying on me. Here are the particulars:
Motherboard: Iwill XA100
CPU: AMD K6 350Mhz
RAM: 128Meg SDRam
What is happing is this: Linux boots up to the RH install program.
Everything goes fine until the disk partitioning phase (using Disk
Druid). At a random time during this phase, strange things will happen.
Most error messages scrolls off the screen too fast to see. This was a
red screen (red screen of death?). The one message I got that was
different, was:
edit install exited abnormally
sending termination signals...done
sending kill signals...done
unmounting file systes...
/tmp/rhimage
/proc
you may safely reboot your system.
Does anyone know what might be causing this? I don't want to take back
every component I got, but am perfectly willing to exchange something
that's flaky.
And if there's more information I can supply you to help, let me know.
