I have an EeePC 900 running Mageia 1. Since M1 is getting EOL'ed, I thought I'd try Mageia 2.

Specs:

EeePC 900
900MHz Celeron Mobile
2GB RAM
32GB PATA SSD
i915 Graphics

When I tried the LiveCD, it failed to boot.  It would hang.
So I tried the Free DVD (i586). It hangs during the boot/installation. I switched to the command prompt screen, and ran ps. It appears to be hanging on "insmod /tmp/sd_mod.ko". This insmod process is unkillable, even with kill -9.

Any ideas or suggestions? Has anyone got M2 installed on a 900 (not a 901)?

Thanks,

red floyd
