[newbie] Installation problem

[Jim Williams]

When I attempt installation of Mandrake Linux 7.1with DrakX it freezes when
attempting to detect my hard disk.  It's an IDE and set for LBA in the BIOS
(whatever that means) I have a Celeron 566, HD is 20 megs with 2Meg drive
set up for windows.  Can anyone help me?

Sincerely,

Jim
