I have downloaded the latest LiveCD 6.1.1-3 so I can build my first LFS
system. Unfortunately I can't boot from the CD as it hangs at "Starting
init".
My system:
AMD K6-2 500mhz
RAM 256mb
Motherboard FIC - VA-503+
AWARD Bios.
LITE-ON CD-RW drive
Action taken so far:
1) Checked ISO MD5 - ok!
2) Tried the following cheatcodes:
linux expert
linux nolapci
3) Burnt new CD - Same error.
I have run the following linux distros on this machine without problems:
Slackware 10.2
Debian Woody
Kanotix
Knoppix
Vector Linux 4.3
But had a similar problem with Gentoo that I never got to the bottom of.
